Letter to the family

Originally translated from Português

Dear Host Family,

My name is Rita , I am almost 23 years old, and I live in Portugal. I am a cheerful, responsible person who is passionate about learning about new cultures. I come from a close-knit family, where I always had the opportunity to take care of my family members, and this experience helped me develop a great love for children and the elderly. I have completed the first year of my nursing degree, and I am currently looking for an opportunity that will allow me to live in another country, while doing something I really enjoy.

I decided to apply to be an au pair because I believe that this is an excellent opportunity to grow as a person, learn a new language, and immerse myself deeply in the culture of a new country. I have always loved taking care of children, and for me, taking care of them is a way to share love, learning, and lots of laughter. In addition, I love the idea of being part of a new family, sharing my cultural experiences, and creating bonds that can last a lifetime.

I believe that your family should host me because I am genuinely interested in becoming a big sister to your children or granddaughter, providing them with love, support and fun. I have a responsible approach, but I am also very creative and love activities such as crafts, outdoor games and helping with homework. I would love to contribute to the well-being and happiness of your family, while also learning from you and experiencing the routine and culture of a different country.

I believe that I am qualified for this position because I have experience caring for children of different ages and elderly people, both within my family and through work. I am patient, caring and know how to deal with different situations calmly and effectively. In addition, I am fluent in Portuguese and I am very excited to learn the language of the host country and communicate with you on a daily basis. I am always willing to learn new things and I believe that this makes me a flexible and open-minded person.

I am very excited about the possibility of being part of your family, and I hope that we can get to know each other better soon. I am available to answer any questions and share more about myself.

I am very grateful for your consideration and I hope to have the opportunity to be your au pair!

Kind regards,
Rita

Experience

Originally translated from Português

I have experience in caring for children in my family, especially my nephew and cousins. Since my nephew was born, I have been a constant presence in his life, helping with daily tasks such as feeding, changing diapers, preparing simple meals and putting him to sleep. I also enjoy spending time playing with him, creating educational and fun activities that stimulate his development.

In addition, I regularly care for my cousins, who are of varying ages. With them, I have learned to adapt my approach according to their age group and individual needs, helping with schoolwork, organizing outdoor activities, creative games and, of course, always ensuring their safety and well-being at all times. These experiences have taught me to be patient, responsible and creative when dealing with children.
