Description

Hi! i am from the Netherlands and I have been wanting to travel the world for a long time. I am very excited to get a better understanding about other cultures as well as get to know new people. I like to work together but can also enjoy some time alone. I am passionate about learning new skills, like farming, animal welfare etc. I would also really enjoy working with children and broaden my skills in this department. I am an optimistic person who is eager to talk to and learn from others.

More details about your skills

I have been working for three years at a supermarket, I worked in different departments, like at the bakery, stocking shelves and at the checkout.

I have been occasionally babysitting since I was fourteen, I have been babysitting children at the ages 10 months till eleven year old.

For the last 8 months, I have been working at a company that works with children who need a little bit more care. I have been working with children with autism, ADHD, and lower cognitive abilities. At this company I have been doing lots of activities, like baking, playing outside, taking cultural trips and crafts.

I have been studying psychologie for three years and really enjoy learning about behavior and how the brain works. Studying psychology also taught me to see someone's point of view in many different ways.

In my free time I like to walk and care for my dog. When I was younger I took care of my rabbit and I always liked to take care of my neighbors animals when they were on vacation.

I think I can work well with others and enjoy teaching something myself but also learning from others. I am eager to learn. I also like to look at things from the bright side.
