Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear Family, Hi! I am thrilled at the opportunity to introduce myself to you. I can't wait to meet you and become a part of your family. As a recent high-school graduate, I bring a fresh perspective and eagerness to contribute. With valuable skills in tutoring and a knack for building strong bonds, I aspire to not only be your au pair but also a close friend to your family. Always willing to lend a hand, I am here to support you in any way I can. My funny and caring nature ensures a warm and lively atmosphere, while my love for learning extends to both new experiences and getting to know each of you better. I am genuinely excited about the possibility of joining your family and embarking on this enriching journey together. Warm regards, Meghan

Why I would make the perfect au pair

As the perfect au pair, I embody a blend of traits that make me an invaluable addition to any family. My unwavering trustworthiness and sense of responsibility reassure parents, allowing them to confidently entrust their children to my care. With my strong academic background and tutoring abilities, I provide valuable educational support, ensuring the children's intellectual growth. My genuine passion for kids fosters a deep connection within the family, creating a warm and nurturing environment. My fun-loving nature brings joy and laughter into the home, while my eagerness to learn and adapt reflects my commitment to personal and professional growth. With my availability and dedication, I am fully prepared to enrich the lives of the family I join as their au pair.

Hobbies and other interests

I have a bunch of hobbies that I really like. One thing I enjoy is speaking in front of people, it makes me feel confident and happy. I also love painting and drawing; it lets me be creative and express myself. Watching TV shows is another favorite pastime, especially the ones I used to watch when I was younger – they bring back good memories. Playing board games with my friends is always a blast; we have so much fun together. When I'm not indoors, I like playing video games or going outside for activities like hiking. Sometimes, I volunteer to help out in my community because it feels good to give back and make a difference.
