Letter to the family

My name is Robyn, I am a 26 year old English teacher, from the UK, currently based in Vietnam. I am looking for an opportunity as an au pair or a nanny because I have loved my experience teaching in Vietnam for a year and would like to continue working with children, especially within a close family environment. I have a passion for childcare and education and love watching children grow and develop their personalities.
As well as 1 year's experience teaching in Vietnam, I also have extensive experience providing childcare within my family, in which I regularly cared for my 6 nieces and nephews sometimes as the primary carer for all 6 children for up to 1 week. I have provided the primary care around the clock for ages from birth to 15 years old. I have also provided substantial amounts of informal childcare for several other families, playing games, preparing and serving meals as well as facilitating set routines, with caring roles from several hours to several days as the primary caregiver, including overnight care and care during sickness. I have further experience as a carer for adults, in which I provided daily care in all areas of life. In this role I was able to develop close personal relationships with the people I cared for whilst also providing specialised care for their individual, specific needs. I also have first aid training and am experienced as a life guard, further widening my skillset.
I am passionate about caring for people and developing close relationships with those I provide care for, I would love to be able to work closely and integrate within a family unit and help to provide support in development, as well as share their joy in seeing children grow and develop into their own people.

Experience

I have many hours of providing childcare, both in a close knit family dynamic for single children, up to large classes of up to 24, I have found these experiences to be incredibly rewarding. I feel working with children has helped me develop important skillsets such as creativity and patience. Through teaching children in Vietnam, I have become adept at speaking to children in their second language and am passionate about helping language skills develop through fun tasks and games. I have been studying french for 2 years and am working at an elementary to intermediate level and I would love to develop my language skills further. I am keen to develop my french to at least an intermediate, B1 level, with intentions to be able to develop my fluency to a point where I can relocate to France full time in the future. I am passionate about learning French further and experiencing French life and French culture due to having a French grandmother who spoke so passionately about her home country.
Through my french lessons, as well as living in such a diverse city as Ho Chi Minh city, I have many close personal relationships with French nationals and enjoy taking part in French culture with them, through music, film and food, whilst also practicing my language skills. I have been asked to provide English lessons to French nationals here in Saigon so have also become adept at speaking specifically to French speakers with English as a second language.
