Dear Host Family,

My name is Wilma, and I’m an 18-year-old student from Sweden, currently studying at St Eriks Gymnasium in Stockholm in the theater program. Right now I'm in my last year of school and will graduate in the middle of June. I’m passionate about cultural exchange, learning languages, and spending time with children, which is why I’m excited to apply to become your next Au Pair and Nanny.

I've always been drawn to working with children, not just because I’m a big sister and the oldest in my family but also—whether it's helping my younger brother with homework, babysitting neighbors’ kids, or volunteering for sports, it brings me joy. Becoming an Au Pair is a perfect opportunity for me to combine my love for childcare with my interest in experiencing new cultures and family life abroad. I see it not only as a job but as a meaningful and enriching exchange where I can support your family while also learning from you.

I believe I would be a great fit for your family because I am responsible, caring, and open-minded. I genuinely enjoy engaging with children, whether that means helping them with daily routines, supporting their learning, or simply playing and having fun. I’m fluent in English and Swedish, and I am happy to help with language learning if that’s something your family would enjoy. I also love music, theater, outdoor activities, and would be thrilled to bring creativity and energy into your household.

With my background as a full-time older sister and cousin, I am well-prepared to take on the responsibility that comes with being an Au Pair. I’m organized, respectful, and adaptable, and I would approach my role in your family with genuine care and commitment.

Thank you for considering me as a potential Au Pair for your family. I would be honored to become part of your lives and contribute to a happy, nurturing home for your children.

Warmest regards,
Wilma
