Dear Future Host Family,

My name is Siri, and I’m a 30-year-old teacher from New York City with over six years of experience in education and childcare. I’ve worked with children in a variety of settings—classrooms, camps, and homes—and I’ve always found joy in supporting their growth, creativity, and confidence.

I’m applying to become an Au Pair and Live-in Tutor because I’m passionate about meaningful cultural exchange and love the idea of becoming part of a family's daily life. I’ve always been drawn to Italy—its language, culture, food, and family-centered values. I hope to improve my Italian while sharing my own language and background in a way that is natural, fun, and educational for your children. This feels like a beautiful way to exchange experiences and support one another. I have an EU passport, and can work and live freely!

As a native English speaker and a trained teacher, I bring a calm, nurturing presence, and I am confident in supporting children’s academic needs as well as their emotional and creative development. I would be happy to help with schoolwork, reading, writing, and English language practice. I'm also comfortable assisting with light housework, cooking, and keeping routines running smoothly.

Outside of teaching, I love writing, ceramics, visual arts, and reading—interests I’m always excited to share with children. I believe in making space for imagination, kindness, and self-expression in everyday life.

I would be honored to join a family who is looking for someone dependable, caring, and respectful to support their children and home. I hope to bring warmth, creativity, and a strong sense of responsibility to your family’s life.

Thank you for considering me. I look forward to the possibility of learning and growing together.

Warmly,
Siri
