  • Description

    Hey,
    I (Sophia) and Helene are from Germany. We have just successfully completed our A-levels together. Through school and many leisure activities we have become a very good team.
    Helene has two siblings, an older and a younger brother. I (Sophia) have a younger sister. We are both family people and also enjoy doing sports together, such as going jogging. Helene and I also share a passion for art, whether it's in a museum or creating something new ourselves. In my free time I like to do sports such as kickboxing.


    I love travelling, getting to know new cultures, developing myself and growing beyond myself. I like to put a smile on people's faces with my openness and zest for life. I would like to explore the world with a friend and make new acquaintances and friends for life.

    We both love children and teenagers. We like to look after them, teach them our mother tongue (German), paint, do handicrafts or play with them or show them how to cook or bake. All of course in a fun, funny and loving way.

    We are happy to bring our creativity to the table, whether it's redecorating a room or any other project where our help is needed.

    I often recharge my batteries by looking after my foster dog two days a week. As I am very fond of animals, I used to ride a lot and spent a lot of time at the riding centre. Of course, I didn't just ride there, I also did a lot of stable work, looked after the horses, mucked out the stables and helped the riders. Unfortunately, I didn't have any more time for this during my graduation, but I would like to start again.

    Helene and I currently work in catering. We really enjoy the contact with customers here. Our work is quite varied, from typical waitressing to hotel work, polishing cutlery, serving at the breakfast buffet and looking after VIP guests or at the cash desk at reception. Our colleagues describe us as polite, open, courteous, efficient and committed

    We are really open to offer help, as far as I can and would also like to learn new skills :)

    More details about my language interests
    German is our mother tongue, which we are very happy to share and teach with interested people. We also learnt English at school so that we could teach it, especially Helene, as she is in the USA almost every summer. We learnt Italian at school. Here we could only pass on the basics. As we can't speak it fluently

  • More details about your skills

    Thanks to our discipline, motivation and passion, we always manage to inspire new people. We are helpful, open-minded, very polite and extremely engaging. Helene and I, Sophia, have both worked in the catering industry. From waitress to catering or at the till. We have also worked as babysitters. Which has given us a lot of pleasure. I have also given private tuition, for example in maths. I love children and animals. Even as a small child, I looked after my neighbours' cats and dogs when they were on holiday for long periods. Even after 10 years, I still enjoy doing this just as much as when I started. Just as I started riding because of my love of animals.
    Thanks to our motivation, zest for life and the fact that we can lend a hand, I believe that we can support them well.
    We love getting to know new people and cultures and developing ourselves and our skills in the process.

    Best wishes
    Helene and Sophia
