  About Me
 
My parents and grandparents coached and taught me to be a giver and carer for others with both extensive home-schooling and public schooling in the Rep. So. Africa, as a caucasian african my education covered a broad spectrum including social, sports, cultural and volunteering, that is not normally taught children of the western society.
To be a young parent or busy-life family parent, can be very difficult within this generation of youth striving to learn many things in technology, oceanography and science or financial fields and to have a father-figure to encourage, participate and enhance the parents in their endeavors for the best education brings you to selecting me. As I was not fortunate to have a child to share with has never stopped me from mentoring and coaching other youth. I have had a time of caring for babies, and although not my ultimate goal, I will be able to care for them too.
My fiancee and I are soon to be grandparents. My fiancee is conversant in mandarin chinese and a little english, while I am conversant in english, afrikaans is my 2nd language and a little mandarin.
I enjoy a socially, sporting and culturally active family, to those that are homebodies.
Since I am neither a smoker, consumer of any drugs nor much of a drinker, mostly a tea drinker, not to say would not partake of an occasional beer or glass of sherry on time off. Cannot tolerate smoke in my life.
I am able to teach crafts like papier-mâché, leather-work, copper or pewter work, drawing, painting, sports like swimming, water-polo, body-surfing, sea-rescue, badminton, tennis, golf, cricket, soccer, bocci-ball, crochet, pony or horse-riding, reading, writing, alphabet, phonetic and 20x times, and being previously taught on both piano and organ have some music knowledge too.
I will be honored to represent you as parents to events that you unable to attend and to drive the child(ren) to recitals and practices or games as required.
I attend my bible church at least once a week when schedules permit twice or more.
I am available as a live-in for any city in the USA, although will prefer coastal town in the East Bay-City area of California, Portland Oregon, or Reno Nevada.
I have been to countries like Brazil, Argentina, Canada, United Kingdom and now the US of A and formerly of Durban Rep. of So. Africa, am a permanent resident of 14 years.
Here's looking forward to be able to care and coach your child(ren).
Thank you.
