Welcome Letter to the Au Pair

Originally translated from Deutsch

Dear au pair,
We are a medical family (Ivelina, 38 and Svetoslav, 40) with 2 girls (Elisabeth, 7 and Joanna, 5). Our day starts early in the morning. Getting up early is a must - school, kindergarten and work start at 8 a.m. We get up together, go quickly to the bathroom, get dressed and have breakfast together. Then the parents drive with Joanna to kindergarten and work, the au pair accompanies Elisabeth to school. In the afternoon the au pair picks up the older daughter from school, the parents collect the younger child from kindergarten and drive home after work. Then family life begins - we play, but also do homework. Soon the evening comes, we eat together and after a shower the children quickly fall asleep...

Job Description

Originally translated from Deutsch

Our au pair should be a loving, well-organized and smart young woman.
We expect the au pair to provide full support in preparing the children and breakfast tomorrow and to accompany Elisabeth on the way to school - in the morning and afternoon. The school is about 1 km from the home, it can be reached within a relaxed 15-minute walk. The volleyball course is at the school and only takes place on Fridays. The au pair should usually accompany Elisabeth.
From morning to afternoon, our au pair will have a lot of time available - for German courses (there are language schools in Herford and Bielefeld; we have also had very good experiences with online courses) and support at home (clearing the breakfast table; operating and emptying the dishwasher; washing, hanging up, sorting and distributing the laundry; vacuuming; wiping down; accompanying our family in daily activities, etc.). The more support we get, the more grateful we will be and it will pay off...
Our family has looked after several au pairs so far and they have had a good start with us, all of them have stayed here and found a job or training in Germany...

Accommodation

Originally translated from Deutsch

We live in Herford - a large district town with around 67,000 inhabitants. Our house is on the border with Bielefeld (a large city with over 330,000 inhabitants). In this way, we enjoy the peace and quiet of the small town and at the same time we have the unlimited possibilities of a big city.
We live in a quiet and green residential area. There are mostly young families here. Everyone is friends and everyone supports each other. The many children play and romp around together...
The nearest bus stop is just around the corner, about 50 m or 1 minute on foot. Another stop is about 250 m away. The bus connections go to Herford and Bielefeld. The train station is about 15 minutes' walk away. There is a cycle path to Herford and Bielefeld.
We live in a beautiful house on 4 levels and have plenty of space for family and visitors. The outdoor area is also spacious. Our house is in the countryside, close to the forest, park and river, but also close to city life.
The au pair room is almost 30 square meters, very sunny, warm and cozy - has large windows, a large bed with bedside table, a work/desk with chair, chest of drawers, shelf and wardrobe. The bathroom is shared with the children. A fast internet connection, TV/satellite and streaming services are available.
