Karen, jeune fille au pair - KW15 Kirkwall

I am a British musician and scientist with a PhD in natural science from the University of Zurich, Switzerland. While I've spent many years studying, travelling and working professionally, I highly value my interactions with family and friend's children.

Although I am currently residing on my home islands in Scotland, I am looking to locate employment in France as I have a deep love of the country, have friends and colleagues in the south of France and have visited the country many times. I am keen to become fluent in French and eventually obtain French citizenship. It would be a privilege to do this while sharing in the spirit, energy and curiosity of children.

While my experience in childcare is with family and friends' children, I have just completed two years of high-school student tutoring and have extensive qualifications and knowledge in science. I compose music and have given lessons to children on the piano. As I'm passionate about science and music, I would be happy to share my enthusiasm of these subjects as part of my childcare services.
