Hi there, my name is Nkanyezi, I’m a 29 year old woman from South Africa who came to the United States in 2015 as an Au Pair and completed my program after 2 beautiful families to spend it with!. I am a fluent English speaking individual yet also fluent in 9 languages from my country which include Afrikaans and isiZulu, I’ve been living in the USA for 9 years now, with pure and unjustified love for children as seeds of this earth. I have taken care of children for as long as I can imagine, coming from a big family of 15 children, 9 girls and 6 boys, including myself, growing up I felt joy participating in community service programs in helping Youth. I have solid and satisfying experience dealing with children all shapes, sizes, gender and age. In my past experiences I worked in orphanages, child abuse shelters as Read more well as developing a library in an underprivileged city called Hilbrow in South Africa, this had me elected as Youth Hero for The LeadSA leading me to do a Youth development program assisting girls with sanitary towels and toiletries with Glam Girls Club. I am a hardworking individual, who believes in the growth of knowledge with no limitations. The reason as to why I enjoy being company to children is because I believe they are the future generation that we will all look to in making the world and Humanity a lot more successful than it is. I want to be the safe space I never had growing up and the healthy place where a child can be unapologetically themselves and embrace everything that makes them who they are without distruction, distraction, holding back or being misunderstood, I hope all the information provided brings enough clarity Ofcourse I have soo much more to say. I was blessed with my very own rainbow baby daughter Jenny in 2020 whom I love and a son a year later in 2021 Recardo! I've been teaching gentle discipline and responsibility in the household for 9 years now, helping with big families of children. Using methods of understanding that children are people with their own feelings and need to be treated as individuals with their own experiences and perspectives of things. There are many ways to teach a child as you would like to have been taught yourself. I'm patient and I'd love to bring in as much love, understanding and peace amongst a household. Regards Daniela Nkanyezi Koetz

Daniela and I were scheduled to meet for an interview, and 1.5 hours before the agreed upon time I found out that my relative was able to take the position. I notified Daniela thinking I would catch her before she left, but she was already on the bus from Sac to Folsom to be early for her interview. She was very professional and responsive during our initial communication, and gracious when I told her the position had been filled so unexpectedly, even though she was already on her way and had been inconvenienced. I was very impressed with her during the interview process.

This person sounded great on the phone. She agreed to meet our family for an interview at 7 or 7:30pm and said she'd text me which of those two times would work. She said she'd be able to meet us for sure but didn't know which time for sure. She texted me, but said she wouldn't be able to meet at either of those times. She had a meeting she was scheduled to speak at but didn't know what time and didn't communicate that until after the fact. She told me she needed to work for someone understanding of her career in child care. I'm understanding, but it's very poor professionalism to cancel a job interview. She also says she never comitted to meeting us. I didn't call other candidates because I liked her, but I really shot myself in the foot there. She sounds way too busy to be reliable. Off my list.
