About Petra
Experience: 10 yrs
Hello my name is Petra. I am 43 years old woman. I am mother of two girls(14, 4). I love kids and always did. I am the oldest of four, so I helped my mom ever since my brother were born. I spent 2 years in England as an Au-pair and loved it so I decided to continue. I have over 20 years experience and great references . I like to teach the kids new things and it is really rewarding what I do. I like to take them to the parks, library, zoo, I like to read the books. I watched many kids of different ages and I have great references. I watched twin girls for 2 years, 3 kids for 5 years. . Before I was with family 8 years. Even if I don't work for the families I am still in contact with them. I am looking for full time long term job. I have some early childhood classes. I am currently working with little guy but sadly he will go to kindergarten

Petra became a member of the family. She is easy-going, child centered, caring, and flexible. She went above and beyond what she needed to and always followed the expectations of our household and family. Not to mention, my house was very clean and tidy when I arrived home. She was understanding of my son's special needs. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
