Letter to the family

Hi,
I am a 19 year-old American student studying at Trinity College Dublin, in Ireland! I study English Literature and Classical Civilisations and really enjoy studying it. I have always had a love for reading and the classic world. I was born in Los Angeles, California however grew up in Chicago, Illinois. I loved growing up around snow and have always loved being in nature, going on hikes and runs outside. My parents work for United Airlines, so I have been fortunate enough to be able to have travelled since I was young, and have always appreciated learning about different cultures and languages. I come from a Spanish background and grew up speaking both English and Spanish fluently, and now that I live in Europe I have made more of an effort to connect to my heritage. I want to become an au pair because I love children and new environments. I work well with adapting and love to see what other cultures consider a home. I have babysat for many family friends, and love sitting and teaching children as well as learning from them even if it might be a few words in their native language. I feel that I can give your child a fun experience that is also educational, whether they are learning english or have no experience in it, I would speak and teach your child English naturally while having them enjoy the summer weather.

Experience

While I have no experience as an Au Pair specifically, I do have experience in taking care of children and introducing a language to them fun and natural. Many of my cousins in the United States learn only English and are too young to understand the importance of learning a second language, so I find so much value in exposing young children to a language as important as English. I would love to become an Au Pair to expose myself to the culture of my host family and grow in a new environment, such as spending time with children from a different culture than my own. I have loved taking care of my cousins as well as family friends and am very good with finding new ways to keep children occupied. I am CPR certified and have experience as a lifeguard, which has taught me many skills of patience and at the same time quick thinking in stressful situations.
