Introduction to families
"Dear Family" message
Hey potential super cool host family! I'm beyond excited to be writing to you today. My name is Jessica, and I'm on a mission to become the most epic au pair ever! First things first, I absolutely adore kids! They bring so much joy and laughter to my life, and I can't wait to be a part of your family's adventures. From playing hide-and-seek to crafting awesome art projects, I'm ready to dive into all the fun and create memories that will last a lifetime. But it's not just about the fun stuff, I’m here to be the reliable and responsible au pair your family deserves. I'll make sure your little ones are safe, well-cared for, and always have a smile on their faces. Plus, I'm totally down to help with homework, whip up some delicious snacks, or even teach them a few dance moves! I believe that being an au pair is about more than just a job. It's about becoming a part of your family, sharing in your traditions, and creating a bond that's unbreakable. I'm ready to learn about your unique family culture and bring my own quirks and experiences to the mix. So, what do you say? Let's team up and make this au pair adventure one for the books! I can't wait to meet you all and see what incredible memories we'll create together.
Why I would make the perfect au pair
With my experience as a teacher's assistant and previous work as an au pair and tutor, I've got the skills to provide top-notch care for your kids. I love being around children and creating a fun, nurturing environment for them.
Hobbies and other interests
Reading, taking hikes in nature environments and trying mew recipes in the kitchen!
