Summary
I am Daniella, 23 years old, and I would describe myself as kind, energetic, caring and honest. I am responsible, reliable and always try to bring a positive attitude to everything I do.
I have a deep passion for marine biology and have always been fascinated by the ocean. I also have a genuine passion for au pairing, as children hold a special place in my heart. I love being involved in their everyday lives, helping with schoolwork, activities and routines, and being a positive influence they can trust and feel comfortable around.
I am patient, organised and caring, and I always aim to create a happy, safe and supportive environment for the children I look after.
