Dear host family,
My name is Mathias, and I am delighted to write you this cover letter to express my interest in becoming your au pair. At 17 years old, I am determined to pursue a career as a flight attendant, and I believe this opportunity would be an important step in that direction. I am interested in becoming an au pair as I am passionate about having a cross-cultural experience enriching while providing support to a family. I have always been attracted to traveling and being able to share my culture while learning yours seems extraordinary to me.
Regarding my qualifications, I believe I have the necessary skills for this position. I have a lot of experience in caring for children, thanks to my 4-year-old little brother who I often look after. I also babysit children on weekends.
Additionally, my passion for customer service, acquired through previous jobs, would allow me to provide exceptional support to your family.
Outside of my professional experiences, I regularly practice swimming and dancing, which demonstrates my commitment to a healthy and active lifestyle. My trumpet practice reflects my dedication to learning and developing artistic skills.
At the age of 16, I also had the opportunity to work in organic farming during my summer vacation. This experience allowed me to gain a deep respect for the environment and hard work, values that I would be honored to share with your family.
In short, I am convinced that my enthusiastic personality, my willingness to learn and my ability to adapt quickly would make me an excellent addition to your household.
I look forward to discussing this opportunity with you in more detail.
Kind regards, Mathias
