Dear Host Family,
Thank you for taking the time to read my letter.
My name is Minah Adhiambo,I am 20 years old. I am living in Nairobi Kenya,I am a primary school teacher.
I have A1 certificate for basic German.
In my spare time, I love to clean and organize things, gardening and learning new things. I also play with my young cousins when they aren't at school. I love baking and cooking new recipe.
In my school, I am assigned to teach the youngest group of children. In between the short exercise lessons I was responsible for entertaining the children and we had lots of fun playing hide and seek, and singing.
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.
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 have never been abroad but I am used to not seeing either my dad or my mom for more than 10 months as I studied boarding for 6 secondary years , I don’t think I will become particular home sick.
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.
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.??
