Dear Parents
I would be very interested in discussing the position of live in nanny with you. I am very excited at the possibility of helping you care for your children. I am a people person and enjoy interacting with children of all ages. I am a very organized person; good at multitasking. I would enjoy working with you as part of a team or on my own to care for your children.
My children are grown and on their own. I do not have pets. I am mature and do not smoke, drink or do drugs. I do not bring visitors into your home without prior approval and that would only be my grown children for very limited reasons. I drive and can us your car or mine. I am a US citizen and only speak English.
As a teenager I babysat extensively. I then became a mother and took care of 4 children, the last two being twin boys who are almost 20 and on their own. I was also one of those mothers who always babysat, and had other people’s kids in my home for my kids to play with. These are things I did for fun not for pay. I went to school to be an activity director for nursing homes but there are too many qualified people and not enough positions. I do feel that I can use some of my training to help me with your children. I also have personal references and job references.. I am a good housekeeper and I am willing to negotiate light housekeeping and some cooking. Since I was a mother I have experience handling household management by myself. I am well organized and detail oriented. I am CPR Certified.
I was employed as a live-in nanny where I cared for a 2 year old, a 4 year old and shared household duties with a working mom. I successfully potty trained the children. I taught the 4yr old to write his name and we worked on preschool activities and arts and crafts 4 days a week. I can send you my resume and references upon request.
I am seeking a salary plus room and board which includes utilities and food. I would love to hear more details about this position. I would appreciate an opportunity to discuss the position with you on the and in person. I look forward to talking to you about how I may best meet your needs. Enclosed please find a resume and references. Thank you for your consideration.
