Dear Mr. and Mrs. Jackson, I am writing to apply for the position advertised in the “Daily Mirror� newspaper yesterday. I am twenty-eight years old and currently I am studying for the public examination to become a secondary school teacher. That is why I would like to work for you, because I am very interested in children and I would also like to find out more about their behavior. I am, indeed, a reliable and mature person and, what is more, I have a great deal of patient and enthusiasm. Besides, I am familiar with a big amount of games due to my experience as a camp leader in campsites for the last two years, so I feel that I can make children have fun and be entertained not just outside but inside of the house. Furthermore, I worked as an Au pair in the UK for one year some years ago. That is why I feel I am the right candidate for this job. I hold a B2 level of English that I am enclosing as well as a photograph of myself and my CV for your consideration. I also enclose references from my last two employers, who give details of my skills and qualities. I will be available for any further information you need at any time by email at babysit@gmail.com. I look forward to receiving your reply. Yours sincerely,
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Jackson, I am writing to you in response to your advertisement where you are looking for a lively young person to look after your two children. First of all, I would like to point out that I am a young person (I am 21 years old) but I think I am mature enough to take care of your children. I am the oldest of 5 siblings. The youngest is 5 years old, so I am really used to dealing with kids. Furthermore, I am studying pedagogy, so I am able to understand and treat your children properly. Also, I have been working is summer camps in the last three summers so leisure is not a problem for me. Regarding my English level, I would like to tell you that English is a language that I am really interested in. I have been studying English for the last five years, attending classes at the language school in my town, where I passed all the exams I took. To my mind, my English level is high enough to succeed in this job. So, I am definitely the right person to be hired. If you need any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me. I look forward to hearing from you. Yours sincerely,

November 12 th, 2018 Re: Nanny Dear Mr. and Mrs. Jackson,
I am writing in response to your advertisement in the “Daily Mirror” yesterday. I know that I am the perfect candidate for the position. I understand that you are looking for a lively person to take care of your two children.
I am a 23-year old girl and I finished my studies as a nursery school teacher last summer. That’s the main reason why I am applying for the job. I want to get experience in dealing with English children as soon as possible. I am a reliable, creative and enthusiastic person and I also have a great deal of patience, particularly when dealing with children. As an artistic person, passionate in crafting, I have interesting projects that I would love to create with them. I worked as a part-time babysitter in my city last year. This job and my experience with my three younger siblings have helped me to develop my child caring skills. I am fluent in spoken and written English and I hold a driving license. Furthermore, I would not mind doing extra duties for the household, like cleaning and cooking dinner. I am very interested in working for you and I hope you will give me the chance to meet you in person to discuss my application. Thank you very much in advance for your time and consideration.
Yours sincerely,
