LADY, 27 ÅR

Hello, prospective host family! My name is Lady Ruth Mactal, and I am 26 years old and from the Philippines. I am excited about the opportunity to become an au pair with your family and immerse myself in a new cultural experience while caring for your children. I have gained valuable childcare experience by assisting my sister in caring for her two children, aged 6 and 5. This hands-on experience has taught me the importance of patience, creativity, and effective communication when interacting with children. I enjoy engaging them in educational activities, helping with homework, and ensuring their well-being and happiness. I took a Bachelor of Science in Psychology, and I graduated in 2018. My studies have equipped me with a foundational understanding of child psychology, cognitive development, and family dynamics. While I may not recall every detail from my college days, the principles I learned continue to influence my approach to childcare, emphasizing empathy, patience, and understanding. Outside of academics, I have a passion for outdoor activities like hiking and swimming, as well as creative pursuits such as baking and reading. These hobbies not only keep me active and engaged but also provide opportunities to encourage children’s curiosity and creativity. My native language is Filipino, and I have basic proficiency in English. I am eager to improve my English skills through immersion and am excited about the opportunity to support your children's language learning journey. In addition to childcare, I am glad to assist with light housework related to the children, such as meal preparation and organizing their play areas. I believe in maintaining a warm and organized environment that promotes their growth and well-being. I am looking for a welcoming family environment that values cultural exchange and open communication. I am eager to become a positive influence in your children's lives and contribute to their happiness and development. I am available to start immediately and am seeking a commitment of 2 years, with flexibility regarding the exact length of stay and location. Thank you for considering my application. I am excited about the opportunity to join your family as an au pair and create lasting memories together.
