Dear Host Family,

My name is Sammy, I’m 24 years old, and I’m from Australia! I have 3 cats and 1 dog so I’m big on animals - especially cats!! I live active life, I love to work out, go on walks/hikes in nature, take photos and to explore.
(My profile has me listed as single but I am actually in a long term relationship and my partner is a firefighter)
I’m writing to express my genuine excitement about the opportunity to become your Au Pair. As someone who has always loved working with children and is passionate about cultural exchange, I see this experience as the perfect way to combine my love for travel, family life, and meaningful connection.

I’ve been surrounded by children my whole life—I'm a proud aunt to five wonderful nieces and nephews, and I’ve been babysitting since I was just 10 years old. These experiences have taught me so much about patience, creativity, and how to adapt to each child’s unique personality and needs. Caring for children has never felt like a chore to me—it’s something I’ve always done with love and joy.

At the moment, I work in a corporate job, but I’m ready for a change that feels more personal, fulfilling, and connected to my values. Becoming an Au Pair offers just that: the chance to support a family, build strong relationships, and create lasting memories, all while experiencing life in a new country.

Outside of work, I’m passionate about reading, photography, travel, and the environment. I love encouraging curiosity and creativity in kids, and would be more than happy to share my interests with them—whether it’s through storytelling, fun photo projects, or nature walks.

You should host me because I bring a caring, responsible, and positive presence into the home. I know what it means to be part of a busy household, and I’m comfortable stepping in where needed—whether that’s helping with routines, organizing engaging activities, or just being a supportive and warm influence in your children’s lives.

I’m excited about the idea of becoming a part of your family—not just as someone who helps out, but as someone who truly cares. Thank you so much for considering my application. I would love the chance to get to know you and your family better!

Warmest regards,
Sammy
