Roland is waiting for his next Au Pair in Beijing

Family Letter of Introduction:

你好！欢迎你来到我家！

Dear Au Pair, welcome to my family!

对于你的到来我们全家都非常的期盼和开心，希望在这半年里你能够像在自己家里一样，我们会像家人一样与你相处，更多的让你感受到家庭的温暖和中国文化的魅力。

We are all very happy and excited to host you in our family, and we also looking forward to your coming. We hope in the next six months or one year, we can become a family, and for sure we will treat you as a family member, and we hope you will learn more about china culture.

家庭以中餐为主，如果你很喜欢吃什么，或是不喜欢吃什么，请告诉家庭妈妈。

We used to have Chinese food , if you want to eat something just tell us and if you don’t eat anything, just feel free to tell us. 

日常生活：

Daily life :

我们非常希望你能参与到家庭生活的每一个环节中，不要把自己过多的关在自己的屋子里，那样会很无聊。我们可以一起聊天看电视，玩游戏，可以做很多的事情，可以跟我们讲你的趣事，看你喜欢的网站等等等等，虽然我们沟通会有障碍，但这不是问题，仅仅是速度慢一点而已。

We hope you can join every part of our family activities, do not always stay in your own room, that will be boring. We can talk, we can watch TV together, play games and some other interesting things too. You can share fun stories with us etc.. maybe we have a little problem during the communication but it doesn’t matter, we can improve that.

Roland是个非常典型的男孩子特征，但又没有一般的男孩子那么淘气和捣蛋，他最喜欢的玩具是乐高和各种工程车，喜欢跟建筑有关的东西，不太喜欢运动（这一点和爸爸妈妈有关，爸爸妈妈不喜欢运动，其实孩子还是应该多运动）

My son is 7 years old. As he is a boy, he has all the boys’ character but he will not be so naughty. He likes everything about the architecture for example cars and lEGO. But he doesn’t like sports, maybe because we don’t usually do exercise, but i think for the kid he should do more sports.

其他：

others:

•   休假或是请假，请提前一天告知妈妈

•   If you want holiday, please tell me one day in advance.

•   如果你的身体不舒服生病了，请马上告诉我们，不要自己一个人处理或忍耐

•   If you are sick or not feel well, just tell us immediately, don’t handle it by yourself.

•   如果有什么事情让你不高兴，请及时的跟我们沟通，告诉我们你为什么不高兴，因为我们的文化差异比较大，我们无心的言语可能会让你不舒服，如果你不说我们就不知道，这样不利于我们的相处。同样，如果我们有什么也会向你说明。

•   If something makes you unhappy or not comfortable , just fell free to tell us, and tell us the reason , we can solve together . Because of the culture different, maybe sometime we didn’t mean it but for you it's not comfortable If you didn't tell us , we will never know that, and that also not helpful for us to live together. If we have any idea we also will tell you.

In the past few years, we hosted several Au Pairs in my family. They came from Germany, Poland, Ukraine and Morocco. We enjoyed each other very much. I believe we will also enjoy your Au Pair life both in my family and China.

Best wishes to you

From host Mom Ms Jian
