Introduction to families
"Dear Family" message
Dear Family, my name is Sydney. I am an optimistic, enthusiastic, honest, hard-working, responsible and reliable individual. I love being around children, keeping them entertained and helping them have the best day they can possibly have. I am certified in level 3 first aid as well as paediatric first aid to ensure the health and safety of your children. I am very flexible with my time and I have a valid driver's license and reliable car.
Why I would make the perfect au pair
I feel I would be the best au pair choice because I absolutely adore children; am trustworthy, well-mannered and punctual. My childcare / nanny courses have equipped me with the skills and knowledge that I require to stimulate young minds. My career aspirations are to grow professionally and build a career. I am confident that I will be a worthy candidate to any employer. I trust that my application will be considered successfully.
Hobbies and other interests
I love playing sports such as, netball, hockey, softball and swimming. I much enjoy watching rugby be played but would not miss the opportunity to play the sport. I love watching medical dramas such as, Grey's Anatomy, House M. D., The Coroner and The Good Doctor and many more. I also love reading books it helps me escape to a world of adventure and mystery.
