JUNE, 29 YEARS

Dear Host Family,

My name is June Pauline Cofreros Escario. I'm 26 years old. I am a young woman from Philippines and I want to become an Au Pair for your family. To introduce myself, I am writing to tell you about myself and my experiences with children.

Here in Philippines I live together with my parents Josefina and Edgardo, my younger brother Josef (22) and my 2 younger sisters Maurice (24) and Josie (18).
I come from a little village, named Oton. It is in the south of Oton in the near of the Public Market. We are living in a house with a 3 dogs.
My Dad has no work and my mum as a bookkeeper at a small town lottery.
My family is very important for me. I love them all very much, we spend a lot of time in communication, events and trips!
Also it is very important for me that they support my future plan to be an Au Pair.

Since 5 years I have been dreaming to getting an Au pair in other country. I learned about the Au Pair program because there were people from “EF” at my school who told us about “Cultural Care”, too.
At this moment I know, I want to be an Au pair in other country, because I love children and want to live together with them and have a very good relationship to them. Also I want to improve my English skills and learn something about the their culture and folkways. And now I hope my dream comes true.

I describe myself as an open, friendly, organized, loyal and faithful person. Also sense of responsibility is very important for me. I’m a helpful person, who laughs very often. I am also good in cooking. I love to cooked for my family and also I catered food for fiesta, because some of my friends requested to cooked for them.

At the moment, I go to my company as a Sales Associate. I focus on my job to help my family for our daily needs.

In my free time, I read many books, I like to cook and bake, I enjoy singing and dancing. Also I love to play with our little neighbor children, nephews and nieces.
I enjoy always, when I together with children, it makes very much fun, to talk, laugh and play with them.
I made my greatest experience with children as Nanny in Manila because both of here parents are working.
There I had very much fun with the children, we danced, sang, played and lived for one month together.
Although it gave some trouble and some children argue, but this is normal by the work and life with children.

When I will be in your family for one year , I hope I have a very good time, very much fun and a good everyday life with your children, learn much about your culture and improve my English skills.

I am sure, my host family and I have an unforgettable year, with a good communication and much fun. Also we can learn much about the different cultures from each other.

I wish you a great day and thank you for taking time to get to know me a little bit better. I hope you like my letter and my application.
I'm looking forward to hear from you.

Yours sincerely,
June Pauline Cofreros Escario
