Introduction to families
"Dear Family" message
Dear Family, I hope this letter finds you well. My name is Jessica, and I am excited to introduce myself as a candidate for the au pair position in your family. I am 27 years old and previously enjoyed worked as a second language English teacher in south Korea with Nursery and primary school aged children.
Why I would make the perfect au pair
I would make a great au pair as I have kept that spark of childlike enthusiasm and curiosity for the world around me. I relate easily to children and approach all interactions with others with sensitivity, patience and empathy. I'm a responsible, genuine and reliable young woman who would love to bring stability and joy to the life of your child.
Hobbies and other interests
In my free time I enjoy creative pursuits such as baking, arts and crafts, writing and reading. I also enjoy running and yoga to stay fit and healthy. I enjoy hiking, walks on the beach and immersing myself in the natural world.
