Dear Host Family,?thank you for taking the time to read my letter.
My name is Nina and I am 30 years old. You surely get a lot of these letters from prospective Au Pairs, but rest assured, you will not regret to read about my reasons why I want to become your Au Pair.
I am currently living with my parents, together with my 2 daughters, my sister and her son in the Philippines. I’am a single mom, I can’t wait to explore more from the world and other countries afterwards!
In my spare time, I help my mom take care of my nephew who is 1 year old. I was responsible for entertaining my nephew and we had a lot of fun playing. I always read Alphabet Flashcards to him, it's funny because even though he's 1 year old, when I read it to him again and again, he can recite what I show on flashcards.
I would love to become your next Au Pair because I love children and enjoy spending time with them. I am prepared and I am well aware of the fact that being like a big sister for your children comes along with responsibilities for them and it will not always be just play and fun. My calm and patient personality will help me to master more difficult situations for instance when the kids are tired or don’t want to listen to me.
I did the same to my children when they were little. I took care of them since they were babies, until they went to school. I will pick up my children from school. I know how to drive a motorcycle and a car as long as it's automatic.
I expect that in the first couple of days I will be exhausted at night because I guess taking care of children the whole time can be tiring. But I am sure that I will adapt to the new tasks and daily routine quickly and become a big help for you.
Living with me is really easy as I am not a demanding person. I do respect that the house is your house and that I have follow your house rules. If something works not quite as it should, I prefer to talk instead of ignoring things.
I was able to work here in the Philippines away from my family and my children. That's why I'm used to working far away because I'm thinking about the future of my children so it's ok for me to work even if I'm far away just to provide for their needs and my daughter’s safe because mom takes care of them.
I am really curious to hear all about you and your children. The information I have read so far sounds really interesting. I hope you like my letter and I can’t wait to hear back from you.
Thank you for reading my letter and kind regards,
?Nina
