Dear Sir/ Madam,
Subject: Application for the post of a nursery nurse.
Reference: Advertisement on www.medicalteams.net
I recently came across an advertisement regarding the vacancy for the post of a nursery nurse at St. Barbara's Nursing Home. I came across this piece of news from the renowned medical job offering site www.medicalteams.com. I wish to apply for the same and write this letter with a similar objective. I have been handling kids since my time in high school. My love for kids was born in my baby sitting days. Since then I possess immense patience and the ability to handle young ones with utmost care and concern. I am used to their ways and habits.
I am now 25 years old and passed out of Akron University with a degree in nursing. During college, I was an intern at St. Ursula's Hospital where I worked in the nursery and was in charge of assisting the head nurse with the kids. I have plenty of experience with kids and now possess the ability to handle them well. I also used to work at a children's shelter as a volunteer where we provided food and clothing to the little ones and also provided complementary vaccinations for the ones who needed them. The organization was called the Red Cross Association.
I am a very dedicated person and have a drive to complete the work at hand with maximum efficiency and attention. Besides, my love for kids just makes my job more fun and I do my work whole heartedly. I assure you, I will be an asset to your hospital and desire to discuss more on these lines on the note of a personal interview. I will be obliged to come by and provide the necessary documents and proofs on request.
Thanking you
Yours sincerely,
Brandy Collins
