Dear Host Family,
My name is Joy, I’m 18 years old and live in Austria. I’m currently in the process of graduating from school and excited to take the next step into a new chapter of my life—one that allows me to grow personally, explore different cultures, and take on real responsibility. Becoming an Au Pair feels like the perfect opportunity for all of that.

I want to become an Au Pair and Nanny because I’m eager to step out of my comfort zone and experience life in a different country, not just as a visitor, but as part of a family. While I wouldn’t say I’ve always been naturally drawn to children, I’m open and ready to build that connection, learn from it, and grow through it. I see this journey as a chance to better understand myself and others, while contributing meaningfully to your family's everyday life.

You should consider hosting me because I’m reliable, respectful, and full of creativity. I’ve always taken school seriously—both academically and socially—and have been class representative, which taught me how to handle responsibility and support those around me. I love music, I play three instruments and sing, and I’m passionate about art and creative expression. I’d be happy to share this with your children, whether through music, drawing, or fun activities that spark imagination and joy.

I speak German, Chinese, English, and a little French, and I’d love to help introduce your children to new languages or cultures in a natural and playful way. Even though I’m just starting out on this journey, I believe I qualify for this role because I’m mature, open-minded, and motivated to do my best. I’m also happy to help with household duties and adapt to your family’s routines and needs.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my letter. I hope we’ll have the chance to get to know each other better and share this unique experience together.

Kind regards,
Joy
