Dear Au Pair, 

We are in desparate need of a mommy's helper for our family. We have a very unique and fun blended family that is full of creativity. My name is Shae and my husband's name is Shafiq. Between the two of us, we have a total of 12 children! However, we only have 4 children that actually spend the majority of their time living in our household. Because of our unique family make-up we can sometimes have anywhere from 1 child in thet house to 9 children in the house. Our children range from the ages of 20 to 15 months. The children that live with us full time are 5, 4 and 15 months and we are expecting another child in June. 

All that being said, we are probably one of the most loving and nuturing families that you ever want to meet. I am an attorney and my husband is a music producer and our family travels quite a bit. Ideally, we would like someone who is flexible and doesn't mind traveling with our family and who loves to engage in creative activities. There is music constantly playing in our home and our children love to dance, sing, paint and play imaginary games. We are currently teaching our children how to garden so that they can learn more about nature. 

We have a television in our home, but we don't allow our younger children to watch much television. Instead, we encourage them to spend their time doing arts and crafts and reading. Our children also attend after-school activities and love to have a lot of routine and structure throughout their day. 

There is so much more that we could say about our family, but you would have to chat with us to fully appreciate who we are and what we represent. To say the least, God is the center of our family and love is the creed by which we operate.
