You have seen an advertisement in an Australian magazine for someone to live with a family for six months and look after their six-year-old child. Write a letter to the parents. In your letter • Explain why you would like the job • Give details of why you would be suitable person to employ • Say how you would spend your free time while you are in Australia

Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing

this

letter in response to an advertisement, published

last

week in one of the leading Australian family magazines, where you asked for a short term live-in caregiver for your six-year-old

child

. I have proper experiences to take the best

care

of your

child

and I would like to take the job. I am confident that I would be able to render a great service in taking

care

of your

child

since I have had a good experience in raising a couple of younger siblings as the eldest

child

of my family.

Besides

, I love children since I consider them as a bundle of joy and that's why I took

care

of some young children as a babysitter in my hometown. In fact, I find children so special that I have taken a short online course on parenting so that I could relate to them in a better way. By the way, I recently came to visit Australia from my home country at the invitation of my uncle in order to live with him for the

next

six months or so. And, while I am in Australia, I would

also

love to explore

this

beautiful country and learn about the lifestyles and culture of its people,

in addition

to taking

care

of your

child

should you choose to offer me the job. Yours faithfully,
