Hello, I am Michaela, 26 and from Germany. I have already gained a lot of experience in babysitting, as I have looked after children aged 1 - 8 years several times in my village in Germany and have also worked as an Au Pair in Ireland twice. In my first family I looked after 3 children aged 9 months, 4 and 6 years. My duties included: getting the children ready for school, driving them there and picking them up, cooking for them and putting them to bed. A few household chores were also part of the job. In my second family I looked after 2 children aged 6 and 8. As I was only there as a summer Au Pair, my job was to look after the children during the day; whether it was going to the park with them, painting, cooking or playing board games. Since I have taken Ireland into my heart, I recently moved here to work as a data analyst. However, I also really enjoy working with children, so I would be happy to look after your children on weekends or evenings after work as a balance. Warm wishes, Michaela
