Dear Host Family,

My name is Nerea, I am 20 years old and I am from Barcelona, ​​Spain although I am currently living in Toulouse, France for my studies. I would like to express my enthusiasm and motivation to be part of your family as an Au Pair for a month this summer. For some time now, I have had the desire to live an enriching cultural experience while taking care of children and helping a family in their daily life.

Since I was little, I have always enjoyed spending time with children, helping my younger siblings, playing with them and teaching them new things. In addition, I have worked as a volleyball coach for two years, coaching both 8-9 year old children and 14-15 year old teenagers. This experience has allowed me to develop a strong sense of responsibility as well as the creativity needed to keep their interest and motivation. It has also taught me to be patient and to adapt my approach according to the age and needs of each group, qualities that I consider essential to be a good Au Pair.

The reason I want to be an Au Pair is because I think it is a perfect opportunity to combine my love for children with my interest in exploring a new culture. I am excited about the idea of ​​integrating into your family, sharing my customs and learning from yours. I am convinced that this experience will help me grow personally and develop communication and adaptation skills that will be very valuable for my future.

I think you should choose me because I am a responsible, caring and flexible person. I easily adapt to new situations and always look for solutions with a positive attitude. In addition, I have experience caring for children of different ages, which has taught me to be patient and understand the needs of each child individually. I can also help with light housework and support the children in their studies or daily activities.

As for my qualifications for this position, I have previous experience in childcare and I am fluent in French, as I currently live in France. This will allow me to communicate clearly and effectively with you and the children. I am also an organized and proactive person, qualities that will make it easier for me to adapt to the family routine and allow me to contribute to creating a calm and harmonious atmosphere at home.

I am very excited about the possibility of becoming part of your family this summer and creating unforgettable memories together. I sincerely appreciate you considering my application and would be delighted to get to know each other better via video call or any other form of contact you prefer.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration. I look forward to the opportunity to share this experience with you.

Sincerely,
Nerea.
