Hello! I am Chiara a cheerful, caring and responsible Italian girl.
I am looking for a part-time job as babysitter, mother's help, after school help or weekend help...
I am currently Studying English and American literature at the University of Kent, however I love spending time with children; and for this reason I started working with them since an early age. First as a scout leader, role involving a lot of activity planning, responsibility, inventiveness and quickness in decision making, and later as summer camp counsellor both in Italy and in Canada. In these positions, I have learned how to plan fun activities, always keeping a positive attitude, patience and awareness of what is going on at all times. I have also worked as assistant in a centre for mentally challenged people in Germany where I have learned to always look at the bright side of life, being thankful for what we have and the importance of a smile.
I have also worked ad au pair once in 2011, for three months, looking after two boys aged 6 and 9; and later in 2013, for 6 months, looking after a 2 year old girl. This role as au pair made me more aware of the responsibilities occurring while working and the importance of a balanced life. Furthermore, since 2011, my family has taken on a probation child and therefore I am also acquainted and have experience with children with social difficulties and problems of different nature.
All these experiences were fundamental for the development of my interpersonal skills and personality; they have helped me become the positive, energetic, hardworking, open-minded, and cheerful person I am today. I would love to work for a family looking after their children, cooking for them (I love cooking Italian food), helping them with homework and organizing fun games for them and so on.
Please feel free to contact me for more information, reference letters or personal interviews.

Chiara can provide references from recent employers
She was a reliable and well-mannered Au-Pair for six months in 2013 with us. She was always ready to look after our daughter with a smiling face each time we required her help. Our daughter liked her from the start due to her capability to create a loving and warm environment. She has a very disciplined, orderly, and self-motivated personality. She is positive, creative, and full of liveliness and a great sense of humour and adventure. She excelled in helping our daughter get dressed, preparing meals, feeding our daughter, cleaning up after her, organizing and engaging in activities with her. With both of us working she was a great help in the household. We found Chiara to be very reliable, flexible, punctual, friendly and easy to work with.
