Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Subject: Application for Au Pair Position Dear Host Family, I hope this message finds you well. Although I may not have previous au pair experience, I believe my background as a single mother has provided me with relevant skills for this role. I have raised three children, each with their own unique challenges and successes. My son has autism and ADHD, and I have pursued skills training to better support his needs. My daughter is an A student on scholarship with UCT Online, while my eldest daughter attended UCT and purchased her own home at the age of 24. These experiences have given me valuable insights into childcare and personal development. I have an updated police clearance certificate and have a letter from social services to affirm my commitment to creating a safe and nurturing environment. I also hold a valid passport and driver's license. I do reside On the Bluff (Durban). Based on your location (live-out position) my rates are negotiable. I am interested in live-in position or live-out (only in Durban) and am willing to assist with light housekeeping or cooking. My experience as a personal assistant has enhanced my organizational skills, enabling me to maintain thorough records. I am available to start immediately. Willing to move abroad. I appreciate your consideration of my application and look forward to the opportunity to discuss how I can contribute to your family. I know your concerns will be my children, however my children have moved away with their father to Johannesburg and not seeing them is not an issue. I currently live at the Bluff Durban. My eldest daughter lives in Cape Town. I am also willing to attend any first aid courses if required. One of my references is Liza Aziz (chairperson of Action in Autism, Durban). Hope to hear from you soon. Best regards, Yuvonne

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I was blessed with my youngest being Autistic, he taught me patience, love, acceptance and new methods to break communication barriers. I am a single mom, so I know the challenges of raising children without much assistance. As of June 2025 my younger two have moved in with their father. I am now open to new adventures and new beginnings. Ready to start as soon as possible

Hobbies and other interests

I love arts and crafts and my favorite movie genre is thriller and detective movies. I am an introvert. I don't have a social life, no late nights for me.
