Dear Employer:

I do love to take care of people especially those who have special needs, either children or elderly. With my extensive training as a caregiver at the hospital and some institutions, and being a mother of my four children, I can say that I am capable for the position as caregiver. I am hard working, independent, motivated and dedicated. I am also considerate not only with my love ones but also to other people especially those who are in need.

My immediate boss for 15 years known me as well respected, trustworthy, honest and can work well with others.

I hope that you can give me a chance to show my sincerity and truthfulness.

Thank you and best regards.
