NTOMBIFUTHI, 23 YEARS

Dear Host Family, thank you for taking the time to read my letter. My name is Ntombi and I am 23 years old. I was born and raised in Zimbabwe, however l moved to South Africa in 2016 to pursue my studies. You surely get a lot of these letters from prospective Au Pairs, but rest assured, you will not regret to read about my reasons why I want to become your Au Pair. I am currently living with my older sister and her 3 year old baby girl in South Africa . My parents live with their grand kids in Zimbabwe .At the moment l am working part time, l wrote my matric in 2020. I can’t wait to explore more from the world and other countries. In my spare time, I love to play softball . During  holidays, I love helping out my cousins and my sisters children with their holiday school work. I love taking my sisters children to the park and we jus have a good time. , being around kids soothes my soul. At home l do entertain them a lot we had lots of fun playing hide and seek, doing face paintings, colouring ins and many more games.I also love reading, especially English novels. One of my favorite authors is Shakespeare and I can’t wait to have access to an English Library to browse through all the literature I like I would love to become your next Au Pair because I love children and enjoy spending time with them. I am prepared and I am well aware of the fact that being like a big sister for your children comes along with responsibilities for them and it will not always be just play and fun. My calm and patient personality will help me to master more difficult situations for instance when the kids are tired or don’t want to listen to me. I can assure you, l am very gentle, patient, humble, respectful, honest and hardworking. I also do not shy away from learning. Living with me is really easy as I am not a demanding person. I do respect that the house is your house and that I have follow your house rules. If something works not quite as it should, I prefer to talk instead of ignoring things. I have never spent longer time abroad except from holidays but I am used to not seeing either my dad or my mom for a long time when l'm away at school so I don’t think I will become particular homesick 🙂 I am really curious to hear all about you and your children. I hope you like my letter and I can’t wait to hear back from you. Thank you for reading my letter and kind regards, Ntombi
