I am looking for au pair or nanny position!

Nice to meet you here.
As you saw the title I am looking for my host family to be an au pair or a nanny.
So first let me introduce myself shortly.
My name is Jinny Kim(Korean name is Eun Jin Kim) and I am a university student who studies Korean traditional mind and body practice which is called Kouk Sun Do.
I like reading, learning new things, walking and so on. Sometimes I enjoy meditating but I am a beginner.
Through this experience I would like to exchange various cultures, know the life style that you have like home, school, and society as a member of host family, further want to be a cosmopolitan.
If you have any questions please contact with me to e-mail 21tury@naver.com or using this site is also fine.
Thank you very much for reading and have a good day!

P.S. If you need more information about me please read my full essay file(a kind of letter form) that Ive attached.

Cool Re: Looking for au pair or nanny position!

Welcome to the forum! I'm sure you will get some replies soon. To reduce the amount of traffic, I would ask if you are flexible in where you would work.
Specifically, most, or many folks needing your services may be at Pyongtaek, (Camp Humphreys). Others may be in Seoul, Uijongbu and even as far away as the Daegu area. How would you feel about moving to those areas? Do you have any special training with children? What ages? Do you have any experience? References? Wishing you good luck in your quest!

Re: Looking for au pair or nanny position!

Hello, Mr.Joe
I appreciate your advice.
Last year I applied au pair in America program but changed the plan to stay in Korea because of my studies and my age (I am 27 years old). The au pair agency which is located in America asked me to send some documents like my personal history, References, medical form, etc. Therefore if my host family also needs them I will send them.
I can speak Korean and intermediate grade of English so any nationalities of host family will be fine if we can communicate. And Seoul or Gyeonggi Province will be fine for me.
I would like to ask you if you know any families who want au pair, nanny, baby-sitter then please let me know it.
Thanks again and good bye.

Cool Re: Looking for au pair or nanny position!

Many people don't know "Au Pair" means a girl who will work for room and board, often for the opportunity to learn English. They all know nanny! Expect housekeeping to be a part. You didn't answer about experience with children, which will be important.

May I suggest you find a way to post your offer on various Embassy websites and on any bulletin boards where Americans may see it.
a friend who has access to Yongsan would be good.
