Dear Host Family,

My name is Galiia, I am 21 years old and I come from Russia. I was born in September 2003 and currently live with my family. I am a calm, responsible and open-minded person who enjoys spending time with children, learning languages, and discovering new cultures.

I am writing to express my interest in becoming an Au Pair or Live-in Companion for elderly people in your family. This program gives me the opportunity to immerse myself in a new culture, improve my language skills, and contribute to your family’s well-being by offering real help and care.

I have previous experience both with children and with elderly care. For some time, I took care of my grandmother who has Parkinson’s disease — I helped her with everyday tasks, accompanied her to medical appointments, cooked meals, and provided emotional support. Additionally, I helped my aunt and uncle with their children — playing, feeding, helping with homework, and simply being a kind and patient presence in their daily life.

I believe you should choose me because I am truly committed to helping and making a difference in people’s lives. I understand the importance of both responsibility and empathy when working with children or elderly people. I adapt easily to new situations and always try to learn from them.

What makes me suitable for this position is not only my past experience but also my strong motivation to be helpful and reliable. I am eager to become part of your daily life, learn your traditions, and share my culture with you as well.

Thank you very much for considering my application. I would be happy to answer any questions or tell you more about myself in an interview.

Warm regards,
Galiia
