Au Pairs From Argentina
Although a Latin American country, Argentina has many European influences and its culture resembles the European one. Argentinean au pairs will typically be flexible and quickly adapt to your family’s life. When having the chance to do a cultural exchange program in the United States, they will make efforts to be successful.
While large families are not as common as they use to be, Argentinean couples have on average two to three children. Argentineans have rather strong family values and will typically gather as a family for dinners and get-togethers with near-by relatives on weekends and holidays. You can usually expect your Argentinean au pair to enjoy cooking and participating in your family life.
Argentinean children will usually leave home at around 18 years old to pursue post-secondary studies in larger cities. They will get their own apartment and become independent at quite an early age. They love to spend time with their friends and enjoy socializing. These authentic and open-minded people are a joy to get to know. They're technologically savvy too. You'll find that most Argentineans have a smartphone and their own laptops — they're efficient communicators who understand the modern world.
For 30 years, EurAupair has been helping families find au pairs to assist them with child care needs. We're confident that our host families will enjoy inviting au pairs from Argentina into their homes.
General Facts About Argentina
Argentina has a rich history, and when you invite an Argentinean au pair into your home, you'll learn a lot about the country. Here are just a few of many facts:
- The country has a population of just under 45 million people, and it's growing rapidly.
- Three million people live in Buenos Aires, the country's capital, while another 10 million live in the extended metro area.
- Spanish is the official language of Argentina, and other people may speak English, native dialects, French or German.
- Many Argentineans want to be au pairs in order to travel and enjoy their independence, an important cultural characteristic.
- When au pairs return from abroad, they enjoy better job prospects thanks to their international experience.
- Argentina is famous for birthing the tango, and music and dance are a vital part of the culture.
Family Life and Children in Argentina
Most Argentinean au pairs will have experience in doing private babysitting as well as caring for relatives. Daycares are becoming more popular as more parents are employed. However, grandparents and relatives are often involved with the young children in the family.
Argentinean families are loving and supportive. Our au pairs love being treated as part of the family when they journey to the United States.
Driving Skills
Argentineans can obtain their driver’s license at 17 years old with parent approval (but may drive without an adult by their side). The driver’s license exam is divided into a written and practical exam. Although most young people will get a driver’s license, it is still quite rare for children to have their own car. Public transportation is well developed and is the most common mean of transportation for teenagers and young adults. We recommend that you discuss your driving needs with your au pair during the interviewing process.
Education
English is required in High School but only a few hours a week. Most students will take private English lessons to improve their English. Argentineans have a very open communication and will not hesitate to ask questions or share their feelings with you. If your au pair speaking skill is not as good from the get-go, it can be expected to improve rather quickly!
Communication and Language Skills
Argentinean au pairs welcome the chance to sharpen their language skills by coming to the United States. They see English as a critical tool in the global economy, and they want to improve at it.
Communication-wise, Argentineans are quite assertive. They say what's on their minds, and they're not afraid of conflict. You'll know where they stand on any issue, though they won't be disrespectful. They tend to use a lot of body language too, which can help you pick up on cues as to what they think and feel.
Religion
Roughly three-quarters of Argentineans belong to the Catholic church. The second-largest segment is Protestant. Over the years, Catholic customs have merged with local ones, such as ancient Andean practices. This blend of culture results in a unique form of Catholicism that thrives only in Argentina.
Diet
Argentina is famous for its production of beef. Popular dishes incorporate many grilled meats, along with cheese and lemon. Empanadas, which are sort of like meat pies, are very widespread as well. Interestingly, though Argentina has an abundance of coastlands, you won't find a lot of seafood being eaten. And while other South American countries embrace spicy food, Argentineans prefer their food without much heat.
We're eager to assist you with finding an au pair from Argentina who can assist your family with all your child care needs. We can help you find the right candidates to interview to join your loving family for a long-term cultural exchange.

Comments
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!

I want to participate in the program for several reasons. The main one is that I dream of traveling the world and I think it's a unique opportunity to get to know the culture in this way. I would not be a tourist, but rather I would get to know from the inside the life that is lived there. I also miss taking care of and being with children, I want to create pure bonds with them again, they are some of the purest friendships that can be achieved. I'm not only looking for their friendship, but also the trust of an entire family with their children. I think my strengths are patience and creativity, I'm very patient in general, but more than anything with children. They are people like me and have a say in everything, I like to listen to them, understand them and let them know that I do. Creativity is very important, I want them to play, have fun, learn every moment they can.

I want to participle in the au pair program for many reasons. To get to know a different culture, to know new people and places. To improve my English. To learn how to be on my own in a different place from where I was born. To grow as a person. Some of my strengths can be, my energy, the knowledge about treating with children, from a caring and dynamic way, meaning I can relate with them, not even in a professional way, but as a human one, which I think, is the most important. I also feel comfortable around them, and would like to think I have nice and polite ways to communicate things and ideas. On the other hand, being able to put boundaries, in any sense, I think it´s a really important quality to have in every aspect of your life, and I work for that on myself all the time, in order to relate with others in a healthy way and vice versa.

I want to become an aupair because is a great experience to travel and meet new places and cultures that's been one of my dreams. But also having a host family, exchanging cultures and being able to become part of the family is very exciting for me, I would love to meet new people. And English is one thing that I really enjoy, so improving it would be very nice. I know I'm qualifed to participate in the EurAupair program because I have the childcare experience, a good English level and the predisposition to adapt to what being an Aupair implies. But besides these important and fundamental things, I can be someone to trust your kids, because I know how to get on well with kids, but I find the balance with the authority for their welfare. The play for me, is not only a place to have fun, but also a moment to create bonds and learn.
