Arlene

Hi, I'm Arlene. I'm 38 years old and from Laguna, Philippines. I have three sons: my oldest is 19, my second is 17, and my youngest is 14. I used to work in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, where I took care of a newborn as well as kids who were 7 and 9 years old. I would prepare simple breakfasts and do some house cleaning. Honestly, I'm not the greatest cook. Most of the time, I just try to copy what I see on YouTube. But I’m eager to learn in new ways and I’m open to listening. I'm a cheerful person, and I hope my new boss will treat me like a real person, not just a worker. We all make mistakes sometimes, and I wish it’s okay to have conversations and share some laughs at work. I understand the importance of respect because I hold great respect for my bosses. 😊 I also see my boss’s children as my own, and I want to teach them good manners and how to respect others.

Right now, I’ve been working in Hong Kong for a year and three months. I'm planning to look for a new job soon because my current situation isn’t good for my mental health.
