RICA, 24 JAHRE

I hope this letter finds you well. My name is Rica, and I am writing to express my sincere interest in becoming an au pair for your family. I am 24 years old and come from the Philippines. I have always had a passion for working with children, and I believe that this experience would allow me to contribute positively to your family while learning about your culture and sharing my own. I have worked as an au pair in the Netherlands for around three months, which is my only formal experience in this role. However, I have been taking care of my baby nephews and nieces for the past three years, giving me valuable hands-on experience with childcare. This background makes me a candidate who is not entirely new to the responsibilities of an au pair. Having a dad who worked abroad for extended periods—sometimes for an entire year—since I was a baby placed a lot of responsibility and required adaptability on both me and my siblings. Ensuring that the house was in order and prioritizing my family's well-being became second nature to me, which is why I always strive to make the best of every situation. I aspire to be an au pair for different families in various countries, as it will allow me to explore the world. Eventually, I plan to return to the Philippines in my late twenties and settle down near my family.
