Thanks for the reply,You are welcome to stay for as long as you wish.My wife died about Two years ago when my boy's, Jerry was 2 and Jake was just 1 years old.Jerry and Jake has been my motivation since then and i really want the best for them and that is why i really would want someone really nice and who i can trust to take care of them.This is also the main reason i am looking for an aupair from outside of England as the ones here have too many jobs thereby abandoning kids before the normal close of work time. I work as a building engineer.I am currently on a building contract on the outskirts of my state and so it takes me much time to drive to my son's school.I live in 19 Bakers Row street London .I read through your mail and i hope it will be a pleasure having you work for me.The prime purpose for me finding an aupair is because i have varying and lengthy work hours, but would be very considerate to your time as well. I have just returned back to full-time work and feel as though Jerry and Jake would be best served by having a nanny or an aupair.

I am looking for someone that I and my son’s can treat as part of a family/friend and not just as a nanny/aupair. Jerry and Jake is easy to get along with you, we want to make you feel comfortable and at home,,are easy going, and down to earth.I would like you as an au pair/nanny to be a comfortable care giving partner/companion/sister who is caring, flexible, and will have fun with our family. I would also love our au pair to go shopping with us, go out to eat with us, go to the movies with us, participate in family events, go on trips with us (we love going to amusement parks), share holidays with us, etc.--become a part of our family. We really want someone who will pro actively talk, sing, laugh, interact, engage with the kids We would really enjoy a light-hearted, fun, and enthusiastic person who's ready for a worthy experience with a young, active family.

We have an extremely supporting family here in the area, and the Jerry and Jake's grandparents play very active roles in there live also.i will be paying you 2,400 GB Pounds for every four weeks and a pocket money of 250 GB Pounds per week for the buying of some things for your self the working hour is just 7 hours per day and your responsibility in my house is just to take care of my boys,on shopping ,taking Jerry and Jake to the school bus will pick them up from which is just 2 km ahead from home.And also you have a private room bathroom toilet, TV personal Computer and also if you wish to be having free period from 5 pm to 6 pm is acceptable We are looking forward to the opportunity of meeting you and having you become a part of our happy family.About your coming,I will appreciate you get your documents as early as this month end so as to be sure about your readiness to come.
