AU PAIR

Au pair program
The au pair program is a unique cultural exchange experience for both the au pair and the host family.
The actual term “au pair” means ‘on par’ or “equal to” in French and that is exactly what being an au pair is all about – becoming an equal member of your host family during your placement.
Looking after children and integrating with your host family in a caring home environment gives you the incredible opportunity to learn about a different culture while also sharing your own. Au pairs also have the possibility to study alongside childcare hours.
The regulations around the au pair program differ from country to country, but in general an au pair should meet the following criteria:

· An au pair can be both male or female
· Usually an au pair is between the age of 18 and 30
· Depending on the country you can be an au pair between 3 – 12 months
· Have childcare and/or babysitting experience (references) depending on your host country regulations.
· Provide a clean Police Record
· Be in good health
· Basic language knowledge
