Sample cover letter for Full Time position at daycare

Dear daycare center,

I was excited to learn of your current opening for a Child Care Assistant that you have posted online. I am writing to express my interest as I believe I am the perfect candidate for the opening and I would love an opportunity to show you!

I am very passionate about children! I have hands-on experience caring for children as young as 4 weeks up to 13 years old, including those that have special needs. My goal is to care for children in a daycare setting while providing them with an environment conducive to growing and learning to their full capacity. My previous formal and informal experience has prepared me well for this role.

I am a self-starter and I’m extremely patient. I have great communication skills and I most importantly my first priority is the safety and well-being of the children. In addition to those skills I also have creative problem solving skills. In my previous positions I created and implemented recreational and educational activities for the children.

I would love an opportunity to come on board as your new child care assistant! I believe I can make a valuable contribution to the success of your daycare center! Attached is my resume for your careful consideration. Thank you for your time! If you have any questions contact me at your earliest convenience.

Sincerely,
