My name is Mercedes, I am 55 years old, and originally from Cuba. I am writing to you with great enthusiasm to apply as an au pair in your home. I have a degree in Microbiology and significant experience in the care and attention of children and older adults, having worked for five years in a care facility.

Throughout my career, I have acquired valuable skills in handling situations that require patience, empathy, and understanding. My experience in the care facility has taught me the importance of fostering a safe and loving environment, characteristics I consider essential for children's development and well-being. I am passionate about sharing knowledge and creative activities that stimulate their curiosity and growth.

Furthermore, I have a deep understanding of the emotional and physical needs of different age groups, which allows me to adapt my approach according to each child's unique needs. I am committed to providing consistent support and being a positive role model.

I am an open and sociable person, and I believe my Cuban culture can bring a unique and enriching perspective to your home. I am very interested in the opportunity to be part of your family and contribute to the upbringing and development of your children. I would love to share more about myself and answer any questions you may have.

I appreciate your consideration and hope to have the opportunity to speak with you soon.

Sincerely,

Mercedes
