Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear host family My name is Sharon and I am 22 years old. Firstly I would like to thank you for considering the possibility to live in your family and take care of your child/children. I want to present myself to let you know who I am. I live in Nigel, a small town in the East Rand. Here I live with my adoptive family of four and biological sister. I study education at the University of Pretoria and currently doing my last year, hoping to graduate in 2024. I would describe myself as a reliable and caring person, who tries to make the best out of every situation. I like spending time with my family as it is very important to me. I would describe me as a reliable, friendly, positive and open-minded woman who is interested in getting to know new people and sharing my life with others. I am interested in experiencing a new family life. You can expect me to take care of your children the way you want me to for example bathing, feeding, playing, helping with homework and other responsibilities. As of yet, I cannot drive and do not have a driver's license, but it is definitely a number one priority. I also do not mind helping with household chores. When it comes to childcare experience I do take care of my younger brothers occasionally, helping with homework, bathing and entertainment. I am looking for a live in arrangement with the host family as I will not be able to have my own place immediately. I would be happy to speak with you and to answers any questions. Thank you for your interest in my application. I look forward to hearing from you.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

You should choose me as an au pair because you can absolutely rely on me. I am faithful and helpful. And I am a person who loves his work with children and who performs this work with great dedication, commitment and ambition. Due the fact that I work the hole day with children I feel confident and secure in dealing with them. Another positive aspect through my work is that I am subjected to different kinds of children characters. And I also realize what it means to work with deficits children. Consequently I know how important it is to provide them individual attention and I am happy to spend that time with them. Having studied education also gives me an advantage as I have professional experience with the mind of the child.
