Introduction to families
"Dear Family" message
Dear Family, My name is Alex, and I’m looking for a part-time au pair position in the afternoons. I have over two years of experience working as an ESL teacher in Hong Kong with children aged 3 to 12, and I really enjoy helping kids learn and grow through fun, engaging activities. I plan to study to become a preschool teacher and would love to support a family while gaining more experience with young children. I’m caring, reliable, and happy to help with homework, playtime, and daily routines. I’d be glad to send my CV if you’d like to know more about my background and experience.
Why I would make the perfect au pair
I believe I would make the perfect au pair because I’m patient, kind, and reliable. I have a degree in Psychology, which has given me a good understanding of child development and behaviour. I enjoy creating a calm, caring environment where children feel safe, supported, and free to express themselves. I’m also organised and responsible, always making sure that routines run smoothly and children are happy and engaged.
Hobbies and other interests
In my free time, I enjoy going on nature walks, spending time with friends and family, and doing Pilates.
