I have a passionate experience

Aupair Experience Review: Hello! My name is Awa Boye, and I am a 24-year-old from Senegal. I come from a large polygamous family where my father has three wives and 18 children, and my mother is the first wife with 10 children. Growing up in such a large family, I’ve always been surrounded by children and I absolutely adore them. I have several nieces and nephews, and I know how to care for children of all ages. I’ve always felt that being part of a family is essential, and that’s what I value most in life. I have more than 500 hours of experience caring for children. I’ve looked after my younger siblings, nieces, and nephews, especially when their mothers are working. I truly enjoy spending time with children, teaching them, playing with them, and making sure they feel loved and safe. I understand that every child has their own needs, and I am fully committed to creating a positive, supportive environment for them to thrive in. In addition to my childcare experience, I’m very family-oriented. I believe that being a part of a family is not just about looking after the children; it's about becoming a member of that family, contributing to the household, and sharing love and care with everyone. I want to be more than just an aupair—I want to be like an older sister or aunt to the children, building a real bond with them. I am eager to improve my English and experience life in a different culture, which is why I am excited about the opportunity to join a family where I can both help with childcare and continue my personal growth. I am open to traveling and starting my journey as soon as possible. *Aupair Experience:* - More than 500 hours of childcare experience - Passion for working with children and making sure they are happy and healthy - Willing to be a part of a family, not just an aupair, and help in all areas of daily life - Looking forward to enhancing my English and learning more about other cultures I would be delighted to join your family as an aupair and contribute to creating a warm and positive home environment.

A Guide to Jobs Abroad in Sweden

Locations

Sweden is home to many cities that make for great city breaks, but these cities are also ideal for longer-term travel. Those looking to work abroad in Sweden can choose a location based on their lifestyle preferences. From comforting and cozy with wintery weather to modern, bright city life, jobs abroad in Sweden can be found all over.

Stockholm. The capital city of Sweden is one of the most populous cities in Scandinavia, and is actually made up of 14 islands as well as the most well-known, mainland city. Easily recognizable thanks to its colorful waterside buildings, Stockholm is a great destination for those looking to work in Sweden, receiving expats from surrounding European countries, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia, in particular. Whilst working in Stockholm, travelers can visit a wide variety of museums, including the Vasa and Nordic museums, taste traditional and gourmet food at the out- and indoor markets, and enjoy a fika, or coffee break, in one of the waterfront cafes. 

Malmö. Malmö, situated right on the southernmost tip of Sweden, is a hub for Scandinavian culture, with great art, music, and food scenes. It is also listed as the 7th happiest city in Europe! This could be due to a relatively low cost of living (compared to the capital), an environmentally friendly lifestyle (like the rest of the country), or the major plus of being extremely close and well-connected to mainland Europe. Residents and visitors can take a train to Copenhagen in less than 30 minutes.
