Hello My name is Wilma I'm from brazil and I'm 27 years old, and I lived in weston Connecticut, I had an great opportunity to live in amazing family for 1 year. A house with 3 kids (5,8and10 yo) and a lovely house with pets (dog, cats and bunny). I stopped worked for them because was a contract of 1 year, I can tell you the most amazing year in my life, The kids were my teachers : of my pronunciation, my mind ( to be more patient) and talk to them about behavior and conversation it is the best way to solve an issue. We cooked, I love cook, Brazilian food they love. I drive everywhere and every single day. I have my own car. I love swim, play football, soccer and do parts and crafts. Everyday is different and even with a snowstorm we can have so much Read more fun at home. Also in Brazil I worked in a school that I have references, I used to take care of New born untill they are more than 6 years old. I love play with all ages, and Im happy in my decision of life to take care of your son/ daughter life, I can help with homework and help whatever they need, so you parents can have your time as working, going out or enjoying the time you need. I hope I can talk to you soon. Ps: the pic in my profile my host mom authorized me ;) Best regards, Wilma
