We would love to and we try to raise our baby in a loving environment, not too much tv and more of practical things for her. She loves to play and run around especially out in the park. It’s a Christian household so we try to raise our little girl with Christian values, we go to church on Sundays and try to take her out mostly over the weekends to see things for example the zoo, she loves animals and birds.

Jenny is looking for an au pair in South Yorkshire, United Kingdom

Afrikanis, English
We are a family of three, me my husband and our 19 month old boy who is very active. We are of Indian origin and lived all our lives in Dubai and just moved to the UK on Feb 2023 for work. We love outdoors and enjoy going to the parks and short hikes with our boy. We also have frequent vacations (a week or 10 days break once in 3 months). We have the experience of having a live in nanny while in Dubai who was with us since the birth of our boy. We are very friendly and give the person their space as much possible. I want help with daily cleaning, help with cooking (chopping veggies and prepping), and watching our boy. Creative and age appropriate activities with our little guy and taking him to parks and going for playdates. That's pretty much it, I am not much of a talker and I wish to spend as much time with my boy, so anytime I have I rush to be with him usually and you will be free to relax. I work from home 3 days a week and go to office in London the other 2 days. My husband works all 5 days outside home and usually follows 9 to 5. We are quite chilled out, we like to go for dates and evening drives so might need the person to watch our boy occasionally on nights. But he usually goes to sleep around 7.00 PM so it's just a matter of being attentive in case he cries.

In this video, we will ll share with you what you can expect from the au pair experience and the incredible benefits of embarking on this unique journey as an au pair.
Some au pair agencies can be a bit more hands-off. Okay, we don’t like to brag or anything, but we often hear that we are super involved and know what’s up with the legislation laws. Moving abroad is a big step! It’s an exciting adventure and we guide you in every step no matter where in the world you are for the best cultural exchange and work abroad experience!
Your main responsibility will be toward the children. Spending time with children is one of the most rewarding parts of the au pair job abroad as you build lasting connections with your host kids. Alongside the children, you also will be responsible for light household tasks that fall within your schedule per week.
If you are talking to multiple host families, it is important to align on what your expectations are for the year. Some host families want an au pair available during the day for their children and others want more morning help before school and evening help after school.
Personality and how you would like to spend your free time should also be considered when choosing the host family that is a good fit for you. By doing this, you will help yourself be the perfect au pair for your host family too!
It can always happen that the vibes are off in your new house or you disagree with a family member. This is why you discuss a notice agreement. This is usually 1 or 2 months. Actually, this almost never happens because you get to know your host family and children beforehand so you know about their family life. If you don’t like your host family, we’ll go look for another host family!
In addition to room and board which is a private room in the house and food for meals, au pairs are paid monthly pocket money by their host family that they can spend in their free time. The amount depends on which country you want to au pair in but should be enough money to enjoy the local culture. Check out the pocket money in your host country.
In most countries, you are also entitled to payment from your host family in the form of a language course to improve your language skills. You can learn English or learn a new language depending on your goals and how you want to integrate with your new culture. In other countries, this money can be allocated to other learning opportunities if you would like to opt out of language courses.
Yes! Au pairs are entitled to a certain amount of paid holiday depending on the country they are in. You should check with your host family to find the best week to go. Traveling is a wonderful opportunity to see some of the best scenery your host country or neighboring countries have to offer and a great way to meet other like-minded young people. You can check the rules regarding holiday leave per country right here.
I became an au pair abroad because I love cultural exchanges and I wanted to experience it while becoming a member of a local family. I enjoy languages 
, traveling 
and engaging with other cultures. Being an au pair gives me that possibility daily. I learn a lot from the three children I look after and I’ve built a connection with them that I will carry in my heart forever. 
I’ve made some amazing friends here and have unforgettable memories with them. I’ve also had many opportunities to travel Being an au pair abroad has been such an amazing experience, and it’s changed my life living with the most amazing host parents and kids. 
Leaving my home country to come here was difficult, having to say goodbye to everything I knew and loved. But when it comes time to leave here, it will be even more difficult. But I’ll be walking away with amazing memories that will last a lifetime, and that’s something I’ll be forever grateful for!
Great and great service! I would say I had a great and wonderful experience because the team is made up of great people. From the very beginning until now that I am here in the Netherlands, they have been in constant communication with me. Michelle was just so helpful in everything. Everything just goes smoothly with the process and assures you of what will happen next. Thank you, Nina.care!
