Cover Letter



Hi there,

I want to present myself and my qualifications.

You will find all of my information and contacts on my CV right bellow this letter.

I'm a 46 year-old mother with a boy of nearly 7 years old .Furthermore, I've been working as a nanny in London for 20 years and have been with the same family for the last 10 of those years. I am a versatile individual who can communicate with all age groups and good at making friends. I'm a confident person who loves to enjoy myself and to be lively and family orientated. I am also very collected and on the ball, something I believe is a bonus and is essential when working with children. I enjoy spending time with children outside work as well as at work making me passionate about my work. I also like to participate in sports activities with them (e.g. tennis, cycling, swimming, etc…). I find it pleasant working with children and over the years the vice versa seems to be the case. I also communicate with adults very comfortably; hopefully I will develop a strong relationship with you as well as your children.

I have excellent references to provide.

Please feel free to contact me for any queries.

Thank you for your time and the opportunity.

Best Regards,

Gulhan Gulcenboy
