MILKA, 24 YEARS

At 23 years old, I am enthusiastic about exploring the world and eager to begin my journey with a warm and welcoming family like yours. As a responsible and dependable individual, I believe that I possess the qualities necessary to fulfill the duties of an Au Pair and Nanny. I am proficient in English, and I am fluent in Swahili. My flexibility, adaptability, and family-oriented nature make me an ideal candidate for the position. I have a strong passion for working with children, and I find great joy in helping them learn new things and achieve their full potential. Over the years, I have cared for many children, including three little ones currently. This experience has given me a deep understanding of the needs of children and has equipped me with various skills such as feeding, bathing, dressing, changing diapers, cleaning rooms, bottle-feeding, and putting children to bed. I am a friendly, patient, independent, and trustworthy person, and I understand the importance of building strong relationships with children based on trust and mutual respect. In addition, I have volunteered in schools to help children in need, and I am eager to learn more about their experiences. As an Au Pair, I am excited to become a part of your family, and I am willing to help with domestic tasks, care for your children, and become a big sister, daughter, and friend to your family.

I am enthusiastic about the opportunity to join your family and help care for your children while also exploring your culture and traditions. Thank you for considering my application, and I look forward to discussing this opportunity with you further. EXPERIENCE. Experience As an aspiring Au Pair, I have gained valuable experience working as a nanny and live-in tutor for three girls from two different families in Nairobi, Kenya. My duties included feeding, bathing, dressing, and playing with the children, as well as teaching them new things, such as swimming and riding bikes. I enjoyed building strong relationships with the children and their families, and it was a proud moment for me to see them grow and develop. When my one-year contract ended, it was a sad moment to leave the family, but I had to build up my next career. After finishing my contract with the three children, I volunteered as a social volunteer at a children's home in my local community. My main role was teaching the children English, but I also taught other subjects such as science, mathematics, physics, and computer studies. This experience was very fulfilling and rewarding for me, and it further strengthened my passion for working with children. I believe that working as an Au Pair and Nanny abroad would allow me to continue doing something that I enjoy while also immersing myself in a new culture, improving my language skills, and meeting new people. Overall, I am excited about the prospect of becoming an Au Pair and Nanny and making a positive impact on the lives of the children and families that I work with.
