About myself:
My name is Amanda, I am 20 years old and I live at Curitiba,PR - Brazil.
I have a big family which is composed by my mother Marcia, my father Daniel, my big sister Andressa and my little brother Julius. I have a dog and a bird. I love to spend my time with my family, my friends, watch movies, listen to music, travel around Brasil and be in touch with nature.
In weekends, if I am not studying or working, I like to go out with my friends, go to the park, ride on a bicycle to beautiful places, run with my dog, go to the movies or theater or hang out with my family.
While in my weekdays, they are basically similar to each other, except when I have some compromisse out of my routine. But normally I wake up early, exercise myself (gym or jogging), help my mother with household chores and help my brother whenever he needs to (homework, shower, feed him). In the afternoons, my time if completelly full with college. I have a grate timetable, which is the reason why I have to work in weekends and why I started to work with kids. At first, it wasnt the main idea to work with kids, but as the time goes by I discoverd that I can deal really good with kids – and I love doing it! In the night time, I rest, stay with my family, play with my little brother, study..
Travelling and living abroad was always a dream to me and Au Pair program fits perfectly to me. Taking care of kids during an year will be a rewarding challenge to me. I am sure that besides all work to do, I will have much fun, as I always did while working with kids in Brazil.
I loved all the experiences that I have had with kids before.. it was really rewarding to me. I have a 10-year-old brother so I had the plesure of "becoming a mother earlier", because there is a lot of points you must be careful when dealing with kids and the main is how to be a good role model to them. My personality tells so much about me and the way I am used to work: I am happy, creative, responsible and very energetic.
When I am taking care of a children, I like to make sure they are releasing energy and having good time!
I am a very honest girl, open mind and easy going. I love kids and Im really good with them. If you think I am compatible with you family, please  get in touch!  You won´t regret.
