Letter to the family

Hello,

I am delighted and honoured that you have chosen to view my motivation letter, and it means a lot to me that you've taken the time. Since time is precious, I'll crack right on.

Considering the multiple facets of what being an au pair is, I think that I would be a perfect au pair for you and your family. I love walking and walking dogs, and I try to stay pretty active so both children and any furry friends will definitely not be short of opportunities to join me on a nice stroll. As regards cleaning - I have been a professional cleaner in my teenage years. Cooking - I do a lot of cooking at home and I do specialise in British and South Asian cuisines, but I can cook whatever is preferred, and can meet any dietary requirements. I also often watch over my younger sister who is a similar age to your children while her parents work, so supervisory elements are not new to me. I'm a quick language learner with a high aptitude in Spanish, and still picking up my Catalan and Irish. I have other skills, so if you want to ask about anything else in particular, feel free to drop me a message and I'll aim to get back within 6 hours.

I have great experience where the actual breakdown of the role is concerned, and I'd be excited to further my experience with a wonderful family anywhere in the world. Whilst I'm hardly in the income bracket to be labelled a jet-setter, one thing is for certain. I adore traveling and learning about new cultures. I'd love to come and visit you and work hard while spending my downtime learning more about your little corner of the world. I am also very understanding that many cultures are different to mine. I will not drink alcohol in the home if you prefer the house to be alcohol-free. I will dress in a certain manner if it is preferred by your family. Whilst you give me a wonderful opportunity, it is a two-way street, and I recognise the importance of giving you respect back.

I am currently in the lucky position where I can be very very flexible as regards my availability so I could work anytime within any dates that have been provided and am very happy to discuss dates in advance or even potentially to extend placements should you and your family want to keep me on.

I hope this letter finds you and your family well and I sincerely look forward to hearing from you to discuss this opportunity further.

Experience

Whilst I do not have a wealth of experience as either an Au Pair or Live In Tutor, I feel like I have plenty of experience in fields that have enabled me to earn incredible transferable skills that I can use in a new role. I have great experience working with children, both as an eldest of 5 siblings and as an Officer for Young People in local government. I have tutored within my old school in the past as well as assisting the aforementioned siblings with schoolwork and extracurricular learning. I love to travel so I am willing to Au Pair or Tutor anywhere in the world. My linguistic aptitude - I have a university qualification in Linguistics - will allow me to help your family learn English and, reflexively, allow me to learn your language a lot easier than it would be for many. I would love to do this job and prove myself. I just need an opportunity.
