Dear Host Family,
My name is Anne, I am 26 years old and I come from Nairobi, Kenya. I am currently working remotely as an Executive Virtual Assistant, managing schedules, communications, and digital organisation for a team. Before that, I worked in university administration. Both roles have taught me reliability, clear communication, and how to stay calm and organised even on busy days.

My experience with children comes directly from family life. I helped raise my younger siblings while my parents were at work, babysat for relatives regularly over many years, and helped care for cousins who came to live with us after they were orphaned. Those experiences taught me patience, how to create steady daily routines for children, and how to make a child feel safe and supported even through difficult times.

I am fluent in English and Swahili, comfortable in German, and I studied French in high school and still remember the basics. Growing up in Kenya, moving between languages and cultures was simply part of daily life, and I would love to share that with your children — a few Swahili words, Kenyan music, food, and traditions — as part of our cultural exchange.

I am open to living in a big city, a small town, or the countryside. I am flexible, warm, and genuinely excited about becoming a helpful and trusted part of your family's daily life for the year ahead. I would love to hear more about your family and what you are looking for in an au pair.

Warm regards,
Anne
