Dear Ms. Steven:

After reading your job posting for a Babysitter on care.com, I would like to be considered as your job description closely complements my babysitting skills and childcare experiences. As an early childhood development expert who has 2 years’ hands-on experience as a babysitter with different families of Atlantic City, I would be able to develop and nourish your children effectively.

I am a reliable, disciplined and honest individual currently pursuing my Master’s degree from the University of New Jersey. I have a successful track record of taking full charge of children in the absence of parents. My relevant expertise includes preparing and serving nutritious meals, changing diapers, preparing bottles, transporting children to and from school, and keeping them engaged while developing them physically and mentally. Above all, I know how to keep the kids safe and amused in different healthy ways.

My resume and recommendation letters are enclosed for your perusal. I will contact you next week to schedule a meeting time in which I may further discuss my babysitting skills and experiences. Meanwhile, I can be reached at (000) 965-2356.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
