Dear Host Family,

My name is Lisa, and I am excited about the opportunity to become an au pair for your family!
I am 18 years old and come from Germany. I want to use my gap year to gain new experiences, perspectives and broaden my horizon by engaging in a culture exchange. I love spending time with children and consider myself a caring and responsible person, which is why I am excited to work as an au pair to develop my skills in childcare and gain more experience in working with children. I would love to engage your children in creative activities, outdoor play, and educational games to make their days fun and enriching.
Beyond childcare, I am a responsible, open-minded, and adaptable person. I am eager to become a part of your family, assist with daily routines, and support your children in their growth and learning. I also see this experience as a wonderful opportunity to immerse myself in a new culture, improve my language skills, and build lifelong connections.

I would love to learn more about your family and discuss how I can contribute to your household. Thank you for considering my application—I look forward to hearing from you!

Best regards,
Lisa :)
