Dear Host Family,

My name is Nora, I’m 17 years old, and I’m currently living in Spain. I’m an open-minded, creative, and responsible person who enjoys learning from new cultures more than anything. I love spending time with children, from my little cousins to the kids I babysit. I’m so excited to apply to become your Au Pair / Live in Tutor not just as a visitor, but hopefully as a part of a family.
I’ve always believed that the most meaningful experiences come from fully immersing yourself in new ways of life, and becoming an au pair feels like the most genuine way to do that. I have previous experience teaching children music, and I miss it. Travelling has always been a huge part of my life, and I strive to truly live in a place, not just visit. I want to contribute to your home environment, support your children’s development, and build a true relationship.
You should host me because I take this role seriously. To me, being an au pair is a combination of responsibility and joy. I’m patient, emotionally intelligent, and very adaptable. I’m interested in everything from helping with homework to planning activities or outings. I want to be a dependable presence in your home.
My past experience with childcare includes babysitting, online music tutoring, in person tutoring, and volunteering. I’m very comfortable setting boundaries but have a very warm and playful approach. I’m also happy to clean, cook, and whatever else supports your day to day life. I’m a native english speaker but I also speak Spanish, and I’m happy to help your kids with the development of either.
Thank you so much for your consideration. I’d be honoured to become a part of your family.
Best,
Nora
