Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

My name is Kylissa, and I am writing to express my interest in becoming an au pair for your family. I live near Ballito and have always been passionate about working with children, creating a fun and safe environment where they can learn and grow. Growing up with a mom who is a nurse and a dad who is a police officer, I’ve gained a unique perspective on responsibility, care, and attention to detail. I’ve had the opportunity to care for both toddlers and pre-teens, and during that time, I’ve developed a deep understanding of how to engage children at different stages of development. From reading stories and creating clean, organized spaces to keeping them entertained and happy, I take pride in providing a nurturing environment. In addition to my hands-on childcare experience, I have a solid academic background in economics, which allows me to offer tutoring assistance in subjects such as math and economics. This is a skill I’m eager to share with your family, helping your children with their studies if needed. My hobbies include reading, crocheting, drawing, and cooking—activities I’d love to share with your family. Whether it’s making a homemade meal, crafting a fun project, or simply enjoying a story together, I believe in building meaningful connections through creative and educational activities. I would be happy to provide references from families I’ve worked with in the past. I’m excited about the possibility of joining your family, contributing positively to your daily life, and supporting your children’s growth and development. Thank you so much for considering me. I look forward to the opportunity to get to know you better and discuss how I can be of help to your family. Warm regards, Kylissa

Why I would make the perfect au pair

In addition to my childcare experience, my studies in economics have equipped me with strong analytical skills and the ability to assist with tutoring, especially in subjects like math and economics. I would be more than happy to help your children with their academic work and provide extra support if needed. I a kind, patient and empathetic individual who values open communication. On a personal level, I love engaging in creative activities like reading, crocheting, and drawing. These hobbies not only allow me to bond with children but also help foster their creativity and development. I believe in making learning fun and interactive, whether it’s through storytelling, arts and crafts, or helping them explore new skills in the kitchen. I am confident that my mix of practical childcare experience, academic background, and passion for creative activities would make me a valuable addition to your family. I am eager to provide a loving, supportive, and engaging environment for your children, and I would love the opportunity to contribute to your family’s daily life.
