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 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 believe I am a great candidate for your family because I am very experienced with childcare in every aspect. I can pull from my more than 6000 hours of childcare experience to make the best decisions at all times. I am mature and independent, this will not be my first time as an Au Pair in the US. I had a wonderful time during my first year and am well aware of what to expect. I pride myself on being punctual, reliable and patient. I am a responsible care taker and do not take the responsibility of caring for your children lightly. Their happiness, safety and well being will be my biggest priorities.

I believe that being an Au Pair means being part of a team with the parents, whose job it is to ensure all the best things possible for the kids.

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!
