Welcome Letter to the Au Pair

Dear future au-pair family member,

we are a family of three: i.e. myself, Katharina, the mother and head of houshold, my older daughter Sydney, and my younger daughter Lilly. Together with our Labrador retriever girl Charlie we live in the south western part of Berlin. It is a very safe and green district of the city.

We have settled here in 2020 after moving around with my company the years before. Sydney was born in Orlando, FL, Lilly in Erfurt, and myself in Kronach, located the northern rim of Bavaria. Since we do not have family members close, I need to manage family and work with outside help. So far this has been working more or less ok, but with increased demands to my work, I believe it would be best for us, to have someone living with us.

Job Description

We do required a candidate with a driver's license. Since we do have a dog, the candidate should feel comfortable around dogs.

The girls will turn ten and 15 years by end of May and are getting more independent. Still I feel, that it is better to have someone around, when I am busy with work. At times I will also be on business trips for a few days. Then it is especially critical to have adult supervision in the house.

A normal week day for us looks like this:
6:00 I wake up, walk the dog, prepare lunch bags & breakfast
7.00 wake up kids, getting ready for school, breakfast
8:00 leaving the house together for school or work
15:40 Kids returns from school
16:00-17:30 baskeball training Lilly
18:00 I return from work
19:00 Dinner
21:00 Bedtime

We will need your help especially in the evenings when kids come home until I am finished working. I.e. prepare something to eat, bring Lilly to her sports, walk the dog, make sure that homework is done and piano practice for Lilly. this is also a good time for some sports / excercise.

When I am on business trip, you would also be in charge for the morning routine also
We are linked to the public transport system in Berlin, the nect bus station is in 5 minutes walking distance from the house. Due to timing it is necessary, that the kids have to be carried by car to their after school activities (ca. 3 times per week).
