Letter to the family

Dear Host Family,

My name is Catalina, a 23-year-old unique daughter of a Chilean mother and Brazilian father. They met in the US during their college years while doing work and travel.

Currently, I live in Santiago, Chile, where I am studying tourism and hospitality after previously studying economics in Argentina.

Why I Want to Become an Au Pair & Nanny?

Since I was 15, I have taught English and cared for children, including my cousin, whom I helped raise. Now, I care for his younger siblings, aged 13 and 9. Becoming an Au Pair excites me because it allows me to blend my love for children with cultural exchange.

Why You Should Host Me?

I am responsible, adaptable, and passionate about creating a nurturing environment. My diverse background enables me to connect with children from various cultures, fostering a supportive atmosphere in your home.

My Qualifications for the Position

I have extensive childcare experience and am certified in First Aid and CPR, which I learned during my time studying in Montreal. Additionally, my family’s travels across continents have enriched my understanding of different cultures.

Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how I can contribute to your family.

Warm regards,

Catalina

My Experience as an Au Pair & Nanny

As an Au Pair and Nanny, I have gained valuable experience since I started caring for children at the age of 15. I have looked after my cousin since he was a baby and am currently caring for his younger siblings, a 13-year-old girl and a 9-year-old boy.
I also started teaching English in my high school years to children between the age of 6 and 16.

Key Experiences
• Long-Term Care: I developed a strong bond with my cousin, learning the importance of patience and effective communication.
• Diverse Settings: I have babysat for various families and volunteered at community centers, adapting my approach to meet each child’s unique needs.
• Educational Support: I assist with homework and foster a love for learning, drawing on my background in economics and tourism.
• First Aid Training: My mandatory First Aid and CPR training from my studies in Montreal ensures I can handle emergencies effectively.

Why I Would Like to Become an Au Pair & Nanny Abroad

I am eager to become an Au Pair abroad for several reasons:
• Cultural Exchange: Growing up in a family that values travel, I am excited to immerse myself in a new culture while sharing my Chilean-Brazilian heritage.
• Personal Growth: Living abroad will challenge me to adapt and enhance my language skills, contributing to my personal development.
• Passion for Childcare: My love for working with children drives my desire to support their growth in a nurturing environment while exploring new places.
In summary, becoming an Au Pair abroad aligns perfectly with my passion for childcare and cultural exchange.
