Desmona Ann Mankayi, 21

Work Experience

Hi! I'm Desmona, and I'm passionate about working with children. While I don't have formal childcare experience, I've been caring for my nephew full-time, which has given me a real understanding of what children need. I'm patient, I listen carefully to kids, and I genuinely enjoy being around them—they seem to enjoy being around me too! I love creating activities that help children learn and develop new skills while having fun. I'm young, energetic, and I bring a positive presence to any household. I'm fluent in English, Xhosa, Sotho, Tswana, and Zulu, which means I can communicate across communities and help children in multilingual environments. I'm ready to start as a full-time au pair from March 2026 and I'm excited about this opportunity to grow my childcare journey with a family. I have my Police Clearance in place. If you're looking for someone reliable, patient, and genuinely excited about caring for your children, I'd love to meet you.

Personality & Values

I'm very patient with kids, I listen to them. I have activities to train the child's brain and abilities.

What Makes Me a Great Au Pair

I'm young, I'm great to be around and kids love me.
