Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing
this
letter in response to your advertisement which is posted recently about baby sitter job in magazine Child Care. Currently, I am studying in a Bachelor of Electrical Engineering course at the University of Perth and since the pandemic has hit the country, my classes have become completely online. Therefore
, I would like to take this
opportunity and express my interest in this
job. I would have this
job so that I can cover some of my expenses.
Since I am the eldest child in my family, I am quite experienced to take care of children. My parents used to work when my siblings were young and I was the one who took care of them. Moreover
, I am friendly and love children. I hope your kid will love my company.
I usually like to go to beautiful places in the city centre when I am free. If you do not mind, you would give me to visit sometimes while I am working with you. I am excited to hear your reply.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours faithfully,

The Greeting
Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.
Always start an informal letter in the ways:
- Dear + name
- Hi / Hello + name
‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.
For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:
- Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
- Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.
