Dear host family,

I am already very excited about getting to know you. But, first of all, I would like to introduce myself to you.

My name is Erika. I am 23 years old and from the Philippines. With my parents and siblings, I am living in a house that is located in an area full of nature. We have got 1 cat and two dogs, who love to cuddle all day. My father doesn't have a work, my mother is a housewife.
I would describe myself as a reliable and caring person, who tries to make the best out of every situation. I love helping families deal with the stresses of everyday life, ensuring their children are cared for with lots of love and patience.
I am a very honest, generous, loving, responsible and flexible person and I really enjoy working with children and building a relationship with them.
I am very creative and lively, I love doing different things like travelling, visiting museums and libraries and going to the cinema, the beach, I am passionate about cooking, I love making food, I also love fashion and reading books
As a nanny at home I took care of brother and nephew from 0 to 21 years old, In addition I was a trainer online teacher at my city where I helped Korean students as a "teacher", so I consider myself well prepared to help you with your children and I am willing to contribute my skills and experience to your family. Through this time, I have found out how much fun it is to have children around, I can’t imagine a life without them.
The reason why I want to be an au pair is that I want to get to know the different cultures. Most importantly, it would be a great chance to spend an entire year taking care of children. And of course, it would be great to learn a new language as well.

I hope we can develop a good relationship, working and living together as a family. I would be very happy to experience an eventful year with you and your kids. I am looking forward to talking to you.


Yours sincerely,
Erika
