Dear Future Host Family, Hi, my name is Chariza Go Singhedas. I'm 25 years old and I live in the city of Majestic Waterfalls, Iligan City Lanao del Norte Philippines. I graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education and I have taught at youth school for 8 months. Currently, I am working as a Virtual Assistant for a UK based company. I am single, have never been married, and while I have no children of my own, I love taking care of others because it soothes my heart and soul. I am a very active individual. I like to...Show morejog every afternoon, workout on other days, and above all else, I love dancing. Right now I am part of a dance group, which allows me to travel around the Philippines and occasionally overseas to compete. Also, I like to solve puzzles and play rubiks cube -- it helps keep my mind healthy and active.I am fluent in Tagalog and English, and I know a few words and phrases in Spanish since some of Filipino language has Spanish origins. I always read books, especially on personal development, and I enjoy watching documentaries with my father. My father works as a collection clerk and my mother prepares made to order cakes. They are both members of the lay ministry. I also have two sisters and one brother. One sister is about to travel to Israel for a caregiving job and my other siblings are still in school. Since graduating from college, I have been living with my friends, some of which already have their own children. These experiences taking care of their children inspired me to apply as an Au Pair. Specifically, my one friend has three children, ages five, nine, and fifteen. I help take care of them both with my friends and also on my own when they need to go out or attend a special occasion. I have another friend with a 2 year old child. I regularly visit her and help her take care of the baby, giving baths, dressing, cooking, playing, and all the things I can to make them feel happy and safe. I treat them as my own family and I love them very much. I love traveling and visiting other cities. Seeing new places opens me up to the world and gives me a new perspective, something I really value. On this same point, I love learnint new languages, interacting with foreign people, and learning about their culture. Being an Au Pair would give me the opportunity to do all the things I love -- take care of children and see the world. Currently, I’m a licensed teacher in the Philippines. My philosophy is to teach kids with kindness, respect, and above all else love, which is the greatest gift I can give anyone. I also love to take care of the home and pets. After being an Au Pair I would like to return home and continue my career teaching children, which I feel is one of the most important jobs in society. I would also like to share my experiences with friends to encourage them to follow my footsteps and explore the world. I am a fun and enthusiastic individual and I look forward to the opportunity to be there and live with you and your family. Thank you and God bless! Sincerely, CHARIZA GO SINGHEDAS Show less
