Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear host family, Thank you for taking the time to read my letter. My name is Lisa, I’m living with my boyfriend in Eversdal, Cape Town. I’m currently studying my N5 (Educare) and plan to be a Teacher some day. I would love to become your next Au Pair because I love children and enjoy spending time with them. I am prepared and I’m 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 because I’m a fun person to be around, I prefer to always speak my mind and not ignore things. I’m very patient and a quick learner. I am sure I will adapt to the new tasks and daily routines quickly and be of a help for you. I am really excited to hear all about you and your children. I hope you like my letter and I can’t wait to hear back from you. Kind regards, Lisa
