Dear Future Host Family,
Hello! I am a Filipina in search for my first family match. I’ve been longing to be an Au Pair and I’m ready to be one soon.
I’m 30 years old. I am single with no child. I am a Bachelors’ graduate of Computer Science. My previous work experiences include Customer Service Representative and Transition Support Assistant. I am fluent in English and am comfortable in the company of foreign nationals.
I’m passionate about working with kids. My childcare experience involves working with my elder brother's children. I took care of the children when their mother left them. The eldest child, a girl, was only two years old, and the youngest, a boy, was only eleven months old when their mother abandoned them. My brother had to work in the city, so it was just me and my mother to look after his children. I helped my mother by feeding them, putting the children to bed, cleaning them, and doing their laundry. I was only sixteen years old at the time, and I was already introduced to motherhood at such a young age, playing the role of their mother. My niece is now fifteen years old, and my nephew is fourteen, and they are both in school. Growing up in a large family, I was also a babysitter for my elder sister's children. I help my sister by preparing their food, cleaning, and playing with the children.
I am blessed to have a loving and hardworking family of eleven. Growing up, I only have my mom and siblings at home because my dad worked in the city. With this setting, we were thought to be independent and responsible in doing household chores. I’m eager to help you organize your home and make it tidy and clean. I was raised to be respectful and polite.
I realized I have to step up in life because I want to discover what’s more in life by exploring. It was a childhood dream of mine to go to or live in a European country someday. I want to have some great memories to look back on when I’m older and be able to say I'm proud and happy of myself.
I am highly interested to become an au pair of your family. One reason is because the of the program between host families and the au pairs in the culture exchange system. I believe I’m capable of being a good au pair for your family because I am responsible and trustworthy in the tasks given to me, independent, patient, open, respectful, and most of all family-oriented.
Looking forward to meeting you and your family.
Best regards from the Philippines,
Cheryl
