Letter to the family
Dear future Host - Family,
I hope this letter finds you well. My name is Meron, and I am excited to apply for the opportunity to become your Au Pair. I am a 17-year-old German from Marl, a small town in western Germany. I would describe myself as an active and curious person who enjoys discovering new things. In my free time, I love reading books, engaging in outdoor activities, and spending time with friends.
I have experience in organizing projects and working with children in various capacities. As an elected Student Representative, I have had the opportunity to plan and coordinate educational events, delegate tasks, and provide guidance to younger students, fostering responsibility and teamwork. I have worked with children by organizing and leading school projects, where I assigned responsibilities, guided students in their tasks, and ensured smooth collaboration. These experiences have strengthened my ability to communicate effectively, remain patient, and create structured yet engaging environments for children. While I may not have been an Au Pair before, my experience leading younger students has provided me with valuable insights into childcare and mentorship.
My interest in becoming an Au Pair abroad stems from my enthusiasm for experiencing new cultures and immersing myself in a different environment. I see this as an opportunity to develop new perspectives, improve my language skills, and gain a deeper understanding of daily life in another country. At the same time, I look forward to contributing to your household by assisting with daily routines, supporting your children in their activities, and fostering a positive and structured environment.
I believe you should consider hosting me because I am reliable, well-organized, and proactive. My background in structuring and overseeing student projects has given me the ability to engage with children in a way that encourages responsibility and independence. I am confident that these skills, combined with my ability to manage schedules and daily activities, will make me a valuable addition to your household.
I am looking forward to the opportunity to integrate into your family, assist with daily routines, and embrace this cultural exchange experience. Thank you for your time and consideration—I would love to discuss further how I can contribute to your household.
Best regards,
Meron
