“For the past few years I worked with a lot of kids. While watching them or playing with them, I realized how important it could be for kids to have older kids in their surroundings to learn from them and have somebody except their parents to look up to. And then it was clear for me I want to do an Au Pair year in Canada. Stay with a family help the parents, but mostly be there for the kids. Spend time with them and be a part of their lives. I have a really close relationship with my family and that’s why I also looking forward to become a part of the family and who knows maybe we stay in contact afterwards.”
