Dear Family, My name is Michaela. I am 24 years old and come from the Czech Republic. Overall, I had been working with children for 7 years and I really enjoy working with them. I worked as a part-time nursery worker from 2009 to 2013. I looked after a 4 year old boy in a small village near Swindon for 1 year. I played with him in an educative and creative way, using all my skills listed above. I also attended to his physical needs such as preparing nutritious meals for him, bathing him and his general care. I instructed and assisted the parents with potty training. I also performed all housekeeping duties for the family such as cleaning and ironing. As a reliable and confident driver, I was occasionally asked to pick up my charge from nursery by car. I liked my job and I have had a lovely relationship with my host family. Michaela
