Dear Future Host Family!

In this letter, I would like to introduce myself to you, explain why I want to become an au pair, why I’m the perfect match for you, and, most importantly, why I am qualified to take care of your children.

First of all, about me:

My name is Lena-Sophie, I am 19 years old, and I am from a small town near Dusseldorf in NRW, Germany.
I am about to graduate from high school and want to visit the United States for a gap year to become an au pair before I study international law.

I come from a very big family since I have two little brothers, a stepsister and a stepbrother, and 12 little cousins on my mom's side of the family and 4 on my dad's side. Additionally, I love to spend time with my friends.
Since I adore the children I have been privileged to be surrounded with just as much as spending time with my friends I can tell you that I just love being surrounded by people.

With that being said in addition to my desire to visit the States and live there for a time, that’s why I want to become an Au Pair.

I have a lot of experience in children's care, which I gained through internships in kindergarten, whether it was for school or simply accompanying my mother to her kindergarten (she runs a kindergarten) voluntarily and helping there during my holidays. I also babysit the children of some of my mom's friends to earn some extra money. And last, of all, my favorite gained experience is spending time with my cousins at any given family occasion.
Moreover, I have always been good at speaking and understanding English, certified through a Cambridge English Test.
I have been told many times that I am a very empathic, caring, and loving person.
That is why I would say that I am a good choice for an Au Pair.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Sincerely,

Lena-Sophie
