Bio
Sawasdee! I'm Nichakan from Thailand. I'm polite and nurturing, and I enjoy cooking and crafts with children: making fruit shapes, folding paper flowers and decorating small boxes. I like helping children discover that they can make something beautiful with their hands.
I'm attentive, respectful and used to living in a family. I swim, I like helping around the house and I'm happy to prepare simple Thai dishes if the family would like to try them. I take responsibility seriously and I like to be clear about what's expected.
I'd like to spend six months to a year abroad, improve my English and experience life in another culture. I'd be glad to share some Thai words, songs and games with the children.
Childcare experience
I've helped care for my young cousins and my parents' friends' children from an early age, including babies and school-age children. I took care of meals, play and bedtime, and I learned how to be patient and consistent.
I also helped at a small family-run guesthouse where I looked after guests' children for short periods while their parents were out. I'm comfortable with different ages and I enjoy meeting people from other cultures.
Health, allergies, special diets or other information
I'm in good health and I swim confidently. I smoke, but never around children or inside the home, and I'm happy to follow house rules. I don't have a driving licence.
