Personal introduction

Dear host family, My name is Amandine, I am a 19 years old French student. For two years I joined an engineering school specializing in construction work. I will have this summer two months of vacation, during which I would love to be able to realize a dream: to leave between one and two months outside France. As the eldest of three children, I have developed strong relationships with children, which is what pushed me to engage as a facilitator and guardian for two years during sessions with children aged 7 to 12. The glow that comes alive in their eyes at every moment of joy is so communicative and inspiring that I love spending time with them between 1:30 and 3:00 every week. Seeing them progress and assert themselves was one of my greatest pride. I have already kept several children, the youngest jade was 6 weeks the first time her mother entrusted me, I could use my experience to help you at best. I am passionate about sport and art. I practiced nearly 8 different sports and competed in 3 of them, including: archery (for 8 years), dance (contemporary and classical) and horseback riding. Outdoor activities do not scare me at all, I love to run and actively prepare the Paris half marathon. If it interests your child I will have no problem playing with him outside. The daily tasks are natural to me, I also find that baking with a child even at an early age can be fun while ensuring safety. It’s one of the things my brother and I love doing together, it’s friendly and fun. Often we put a little music, it can sometimes slow us down in the progress of the recipe so much we dance. It is with great pleasure that I would meet you if you give me the chance to realize a dream. See you soon Amandine
