Jenareese Pillay is MATCHED!
Dear Host Family,
My name is Jenareese, and I am 20 years old. I currently live with my older sister (37), her husband and her two kids (6 and 9) in Johannesburg, a city in Gauteng which is a province in South Africa. My mom lives with her new husband and my dad lives in Durban. I visit them both quite often, but I see my mom more as she lives an hour and a half away. My sister is an accountant and is still studying towards being a certified chartered accountant, my mom is a sales consultant, and my dad is unemployed.
I had finished high school in 2019 and I have my matric certificate. I am currently working as an administrator at an IT company. In my spare time I enjoy reading, listening to music and catching up on series’ as well as watching movies with my family. I help my sister out with the kids as well as any other help she may require from me. I am very family-orientated and enjoy family time together.
I started babysitting for my sister from 2018 as the children (3 and 5 at the time) needed someone to look after them. I often prepared snacks or light meals after school and helped with any homework or activities. I also assisted with bath time and getting the children ready for bed. I love to take care of the children as I find their company the most intriguing, especially when they tell me about their day or just talk about things they like or dislike in general. I feel that I adapted to the children easily and I get along with them as well. I always give the children my full attention when needed. I like to do fun activities with them as well such as baking and playing games or reading to them.
I want to be an au pair as I have a love for kids and as a bonus, I will be able to create a lifelong bond with you, my host family. I would also love to experience the culture your country has to offer and to explore Europe as a whole. I feel that this opportunity would grant me a newfound sense of independency. I also want to learn about your culture and hometown as well as learn about your family as you will be my family for the year. I guarantee that I will be a great new addition to your family as I love children and enjoy spending time with them. I also understand that being your au pair comes with a lot of responsibilities which I am sure I can manage as I am a very calm and patient person. I can easily adapt to your lifestyle and routine so I will be a significant help to the family.
I am very respectful and will abide by any household rules that may be in place and if there are any disagreements between us, I would prefer to talk it out and find a solution rather than ignoring the problem at hand. It is true that I have never been away from my home country, but I do not think that I will experiencing home sickness as there is so many new experiences to be enjoyed.
Once my au pair year is over, I plan to return to South Africa to further my studies as my aspiration in life is to become a forensic scientist.
