To be a Au Pair you must be between 18 and 30 years old, unmarried with no children, going abroad for a temporary period of time and living with a host family and have experience taking care of children. You’ll need to have completed secondary school, no criminal background. Above all, if you love kids, this could be your chance to experience something out of the ordinary.

Cultural exchange is at the root of the au pair programme. Incidentally, the term au pair is French and means “by mutual agreement”. Therefore, au pairs receive a pocket money, live free of charge with their host families, just as regular family members, and share meals with the families. The monetary allowance and amount of working hours are defined by the regulation of the respective host country . During the duration of your Au pair stay, the host family has to accept you as a member of their family but not like a domestic. Your host family will depend on you for responsible childcare, and you’ll rely on each other to make it a truly intercultural experience.

Not only will you make new friends and gain valuable work experience, it is also an ideal opportunity to learn to speak another language fluently and explore the local cultures. There are fantastic benefits that being an au pair offers, and make a difference in children’s lives. All these are advantages – even for their future careers.
