Thanks for your interest to become our aupair...I'm a Social researcher here while my husband works as an Oil worker,I am down to earth, blunt and take things the way they come.I am a very friendly person and easy to get along with.You will have no problem in adapting to our lifestyle here. We will be needing your services due to the time commitment that is demanding by our job. We want you to know that you'll never have any cause to regret taking up this job.

THE KIDS
Joey is 2 years, we just enrolled her at a kindergarten school for this summer..She is welcoming and though she is young,she has a warm and friendly attitude.she like s playing a lot and i do not think you will not have any problem with her so far he eats and plays well.Sarah is 4 years old,she's in her first year in elementary school.She likes candy,chocolate and she likes watching cartoon movies.

She also likes playing a mother role cos she's always with me in the kitchen.She pays rapt attention to all i do and tries to mimic those acts she sees me perform in the kitchen,laundry and other activities.She is very intelligent and loves to take after people,this is the more reason i will appreciate someone with good qualities to be her aupair so that she doesn't take to bad influence.Their father,like me plays a very active role in their life.Funny enough,Joey is mostly with his dad except during meals or while Sarah is mostly with me in the kitchen.

Your job is not a hard one,I do not believe in supervising or monitoring people to do their job.I believe people should be giving a free role in whatever they do.So,I believe you should

You will be entitled to a pay of $2500 every month while you will also be given an entitlement of $100 every week for petty expenses which you might need for yourself..This
salary is subject to negotiations for an upward review upon your arrival.

ROOM
A well furnished Master bed room will be made available for your personal use soon as you get here.there will be your personal laptop connected to the internet, TV and other necessary gadgets at your disposal.There will be enough privacy for you,i guess you'll really like it.

You are free to start as soon as possible,I will appreciate you coming immediately but any date of your choice will also be welcome.

OFF DAYS
You have every weekend as your off day as I will not be going to work during weekends except special overtime.
