Letter to the family

Originally translated from Deutsch
Hello dear hosts,
My name is Melissa, I'm 19 years old and just finished my Abitur (high school diploma) in Germany. I live with my parents about 20 minutes away from the nearest big city. Since finishing school in June, I've been working part-time and saving money for my year abroad. I've been playing tennis for 13 years, I love skiing, and I spend a lot of time with my friends at nearby lakes or sometimes in the city.
I've always led a very family-oriented life. I spend a lot of time with my family and their children, and it gives me so much! In general, I really enjoy spending time with children and caring for them. Whether it's everyday tasks like helping with routines or long afternoons where we can be creative together: I'm motivated and don't let everyday stress get the best of me.
In general, I'm a very calm person who gets along well with all kinds of people—especially little ones. Through my extensive experience, I've learned that every child is different and special in their own way, and that's what makes working as an au pair so special! I enjoy getting to know the children and building a bond with them. I think it's important that they can express themselves while respecting boundaries. I believe my open and friendly personality qualifies me as an au pair. I also have very good English skills, a driver's license, and am very interested in getting to know and understand Australian culture and family life better.

Experience

Originally translated from Deutsch
I've been babysitting my cousin regularly for about seven years, so I have experience with children between the ages of one and twelve.
In 2021, I started tutoring and have been doing so regularly ever since. This includes English and math in particular, but I also tutor children between the ages of ten and 16 upon request in all required subjects.
For this purpose, I supervised the homework support program at my school for a while, which caters to children between the ages of ten and twelve.
I recently started babysitting for a family with two young boys, ages two and five, which I enjoy immensely.

In October and November 2025, I will be volunteering for a month at a children's home in Kathmandu, Nepal, thus expanding my experience many times over.

Since I was a child, I've dreamed of traveling the world. Australia not only offers beautiful and diverse landscapes, but also large, multicultural cities. Therefore, the country offers me an opportunity to experience and gain a lot of experience within my limited six-month time. However, this stay will go beyond these impressions. I believe that I will also develop as a person and grow beyond myself. It takes courage and curiosity to travel to a foreign country alone, and Australia offers both adventure and a good infrastructure and safety. My sister also worked as an au pair in Sydney a few years ago, and her stories inspired me to discover the country for myself. I'm really looking forward to my stay in Australia and am convinced that these six months will have a profound impact on me and that I'll learn a lot—not only about the country, but also about myself! Being able to immerse myself even deeper in the Australian way of life through a host family will make this experience extra special.
