Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear Host Family, Allow me to introduce myself; I am Nelly Biabola N, a compassionate and dedicated widow from the beautiful Democratic Republic of Congo. With a heart filled with love and a spirit brimming with enthusiasm, I am eager to embark on this journey as your au pair, bringing with me a wealth of cultural richness and a genuine desire to become a part of your family. As a widow, I have learned the importance of resilience and the value of cherishing every moment with loved ones. My experiences have instilled in me a profound sense of empathy and understanding, qualities that I believe are fundamental in fostering meaningful connections within a family dynamic. With me, you will find not just a caretaker, but a trusted companion who is committed to creating a nurturing and supportive environment for your children. Growing up in the DR Congo has imbued me with a deep appreciation for community, tradition, and the joy found in simple pleasures. I am fluent in Lingala, French, and Swahili, and I am excited to share my language and culture with your family, enriching our lives with new perspectives and experiences. In addition to providing attentive care for your children, I am eager to lend a helping hand with household tasks and contribute to the smooth functioning of your home. Whether it's preparing meals, assisting with homework, or organizing activities, I approach each task with diligence and a positive attitude. Above all, I am committed to creating a warm and nurturing environment where your children feel valued, supported, and encouraged to thrive. I am ready to embrace the joys and challenges of au pair life with an open heart and a willingness to learn and grow alongside your family. Thank you for considering me as a potential member of your household. I am eagerly looking forward to the opportunity to connect with you and embark on this meaningful journey together. Warm regards, Nelly Biabola N
