Selin Ece Tufan

Hello, I'm Selin Ece. I'm 28 years old. I hold a bachelor's degree in Child Development from the Faculty of Health Sciences. I have a goal- and result-oriented personality. I am currently pursuing the recognition of my degree in Germany and aiming to work as a Child Development Specialist or Social Pedagogue. In the meantime, I am eager to work as a Kindergarten Assistant (Kindergartenhelfer/in) to contribute hands-on while my qualifications are being recognized. I trust my dedication, attention to detail, and genuine passion for working with children, and I want to bring these strengths into building a meaningful career in Germany.

Relocated to North Rhine-Westphalia in April 2026 with my spouse via the Chancenkarte (Opportunity Card) visa. I do not require visa sponsorship to work in Germany.
