    Hi! I’m Fernanda, originally from Brazil, living in Europe since 2020. I love connecting with people, learning about new cultures, languages, cuisine, art, music, and exploring local traditions.

  • Description

    Hi there, my name is Fernanda. I’m originally from Brazil and also hold an Italian passport. I’ve been living in Europe since 2020, in Dublin, where I spent five years gaining experience in childcare, hospitality, and healthcare. As an au pair, I cared for children — school runs, meals, baths, bedtime, walks, and activities. I also worked in small Airbnbs, handling housekeeping, room preparation, and guest readiness.

    After that, I completed a healthcare qualification and worked for three years caring for elderly clients. I also assisted as an interpreter in hospitals, clinics, and businesses, helping people communicate clearly in important situations.

    I’ve chosen Switzerland to start a new chapter and have been learning German for a year (currently at B1). My mother tongue is Portuguese, and I also speak English and Spanish fluently. I must confess, I’m excited to become fluent in German — a language that truly fascinates me.

    More recently, I completed courses in Brazil in aesthetics — brow design and tinting, manicures and pedicures, and eyelash extensions and lifting — which I can offer as part of my contribution. I also enjoy cooking and have experience managing a small restaurant in Brazil.

    In summary, I can contribute with housekeeping, childcare, cooking, elderly companionship, animal care, pet or house sitting, and basic beauty treatments. I’m motivated to share my skills and learn as much as I can about Switzerland — its culture, cuisine, habits, language, and history.

    People describe me as trustworthy, responsible, funny, and positive. I always try to see the good in every situation and enjoy deep conversations with people of all ages. I’ve learned that everyone, from children at 4 to adults at 90, has something to teach. I’m also very aware of life’s brevity, which makes me focus not only on living fully but on growing as a human being, especially in a world filled with conflicts and challenges.

    I hope to meet you in November ? — it would be wonderful to experience Christmas in Switzerland!

    Please feel free to ask any questions. I hope the pictures I’ve chosen give a little more insight into me. I look forward to connecting with you — let’s make it happen!
