Great Britain, sometimes used interchangeably with the United Kingdom, is a group of countries made up of England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Great Britain is a network of islands located to the north of continental Europe.
The United States was once ruled by Great Britain, up until the Revolutionary War. Because of these close ties, there are many basic similarities between the United States and Great Britain. Even though there is some cultural overlap, hosting an au pair from Great Britain will give you and your family a wonderful learning experience.
General Facts About Great Britain
You will learn many interesting things about the countries of Great Britain when you welcome your au pair into your home. Here are just a few:
- The population of Great Britain is around 63.7 million.
- Since Great Britain is made up of multiple countries, it has several capitals. London is the capital of England, Edinburgh of Scotland, Cardiff for Wales and Belfast in Northern Ireland.
- Many sports were invented here, including golf, cricket, soccer, rugby and boxing.
- The different countries within Great Britain are all united under the same government but all have unique cultural identities.
When you host an au pair from the UK, you'll learn so much about their culture and way of life.
Family Life and Children in Great Britain
Similar to the United States, the nuclear family is a common structure in Great Britain. However, that family structure is also changing. Most British households are small, allowing them greater mobility and less financial stress on the family.
Families in Great Britain teach their children to be independent and self-reliant from the very beginning. This type of upbringing gives your au pair from Great Britain the skills they need to learn a new environment and take on their responsibilities easily and enthusiastically.
Driving Skills
Residents of Great Britain can get their driving license when they are 17 years old. They first must pass a written exam and then a practical exam to receive their full driver's license.
Education
The education system in Great Britain is very similar to that of the United States. They have primary, secondary and higher education levels. Students may enroll in state schools or independent schools. Children in Great Britain are required to stay in school at least until they are 16, but many stay in school until they are 18. Most students enroll at a university as well.
Communication and Language Skills
The official language of Great Britain is English. However, there are also many regional languages and dialects spoken in the different regions of the country. There are also many different languages spoken in cities by immigrant citizens.
Religion
The official religion of Great Britain is Christianity. They have churches for many different denominations, just like the United States. Other common religions in Great Britain are Hinduism, Islam, Sikhism, Buddhism and Judaism.
Diet
Today, people in Great Britain and the United States enjoy many of the same foods. However, Great Britain has many more traditional dishes that are not found in the United States. Some popular dishes are toad in the hole, cottage pie, Yorkshire pudding, shepherd's pie and bangers and mash.

I want to be an au pair because I believe it is a unique opportunity to get to know the world, learn English better and discover realities completely different from my own, because what better way to do that than to live with a local family for a whole year? I define myself as a calm and quiet person, in fact I prefer to stay home in the evening for example, rather than going out to party. I'm a very patient type of person, it's really hard to make me angry, the only thing I don't tolerate is disrespect and people who don’t take things seriously. I am a very serious, responsible and reliable girl, I never leave things halfway and if I give my word on something, I always respect it. Also, I'm a creative type: I love to do crafts with glue, scissors, colors and more; in addition, I also love to create new stories and act them out!

During my college internship and work, I worked as a teacher at an educational institution and was also related to children. So I have rich experience in educating children.

While working with kids, I had the chance to discover how special and unique it is to create a bond with a child, and how much I adore to be the person they can trust and feel safe with. I would describe myself as a funny and easy going person and I have a strong capability to adapt to any circumstances that may come up throughout the day, but I do like things to be properly scheduled and organized. I like to be punctual so I enjoy organizing my week ahead. I enjoy spending my free time learning about different cultures. At the same time, that is also what I would like to promote to the children: to be curious about the world that surrounds them, and to be curious about life itself!
