Dear child(ren),

Probably I could become your new caregiver, playmate and some kind of a big sister or older cousin soon.

I'm looking forward to playing, looking after and helping you with your homework. I'm dreaming of going on walks, jumping through puddles, walking through autumn leafs, building a snow man, playing board games, reading bedtime stories, having fun, going on adventures, discovering new things and doing many other things together with you.

If you´d like to experience things like that and many more with me, too,
than please convince your parent(s), that I am the right person for your family!

I´m looking forward to meeting you & your family.

Yours,

Rebekka 🙂

Dear parent(s),

For several years, I have gained experiences in the field of childcare and would love to support another family.

My first experience in child care was babysitting my younger cousins and later on I got to know everyday life of a kindergarten through a student internship where I gained basic theoretical and practical knowledge in childcare, amongst other things, by taking part in a babysitting course.

In order to prepare myself for an Au Pair stay, I interned in a kindergarten for 6 weeks.
During my eight month Au Pair stay 2013/14 in Northern England, I was given a lot of responsibility by assisting a single mum in taking care of her daughters, aged 2 and 9. Some of my day to day tasks included looking after the girls at the start of the day, getting them ready for school and day nursery and regularly taking care of them in the afternoon and evening. In addition to this, I walked the 9- year old girl to and from school on a daily basis. For three days of the week I was also the sole caregiver of the 2- year old girl.
Over Christmas, New Year´s and during other school holidays. I accompanied the family on their travels around England and Scotland (to visit relatives) and on a family reunion- weekend.

In summer 2015 I had the pleasure of being the part- time Nanny of a lovely German girl with developmental delays and her older half- sister (aged 1,5 and 9) in Berlin for 2 months.

During my training as Social Assistant I was the occasional (overnight) babysitter of a 4- year old German boy near Leipzig.
As part of my training I spent 2 months at Preschools of International Schools, as well as at an integrational kindergarten. I also organized and carried out a project- week for children in after school care with some of my classmates.

In summer 2019 I supported a Belgian- Russian family near Ghent as a Nanny of their 15- week old daughter and 4- year old son.

After graduating as Bilingual Secretary in Bavaria I looked after a 3- year old Swiss boy over night near Potsdam, as well as a 4- and 6- year old Iranian brother and sister. Further more I helped their mother improve her German through tutoring her online. I also remotely tutored a future Bilingual Secretary in English.

From autumn 2021 to summer 2022 I workend as a tutor in a small Saxonian primary school to make up for missed lessons due to Covid. I tutored two 4th grade classes in English and pupils from grade 1 to 4 in German as a Second language. Besides that I also tutored an Eritrean electronical trainee in preparation for his final exams, which he passend.

Since summer 2022 I tutored a German 8th grader with ADHD in English and a Syrian 7 th grader refugee- sibling pair in English, German, Geography and Ethics. In autumn of the same year I also started tutoring German 3rd and 5th graders in English.
Furthermore I was also ocasionally babysitting a 2 year-old German-Iranian girl, her 14 year-old Germany half brother and 12 year-old Iranian half sister (from Turkey), who I had been looking after since autumn 2021.

Through my stays abroad and engagements in international environments, I´ve got various experiences in looking after children with (a) different cultural and language- background(s).

While taking care of children, I know it is extremely important to show empathy, understanding, patience, encouragement, support and to consider their interests.

My creative, linguistic and musical skills have always made working with children easier for me and I would happily contribute them.

I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards,

Rebekka

PS: Of course I will treat your child(ren), just like they were part of my own family and be mindful of your budget, as well.
