Au Pairs From Finland
Finns are usually described as reserved, quiet and introverted. But wait until you get to know them: you will find them warm, sincere, and hospitable with a great sense of humor! People from Finland are very punctual and appreciate other people being the same. They value honest and open communication, so your Finnish au pair will be comfortable discussing any issues or concerns directly with you.
Most Finnish parents work full time, but spend a lot of time in the evenings and on weekends with their children, taking them to different hobbies and helping with homework. Since both parents work outside the home, children learn to become independent at an early stage which means you can expect your au pair from Finland to be used to doing household chores, preparing meals, etc. Families have on average 2-3 children, so your Finnish au pair will most likely have siblings.
At EurAupair, we've been connecting host families like yours with exceptionally well-qualified au pair candidates for three decades. We're confident that you'll have an outstanding experience with one of our Finnish au pairs.
General Facts About Finland
When you invite a Finnish au pair into your home, you'll learn about the culture and history of their country. The following facts are some things you should know before your au pair arrives:
- The population of Finland is just 5.51 million. To put that in perspective, it's less than the population of New York City.
- The population has grown very slowly over recent years, though there's a small but notable influx of immigrants.
- The top languages spoken in Finland are Finnish and Swedish.
- A great number of Finnish people want to be au pairs because they want to experience life in the United States.
- Finnish au pairs see a greater number of job opportunities upon returning home.
- Kids in Finland are independent and trusted by their parents, and au pairs are used to having time on their own.
Family Life and Children in Finland
In Finland, parents have access to free daycare for children age eight months to five years, so you can expect your au pair to have child care experience through working at a daycare center or kindergarten, in addition to babysitting her neighbor’s children, cousins or younger siblings. Some au pairs from Finland might also have experience as a camp counselor during holiday or church camps.
Very often, young people in Finland sharpen their skills with children by leading groups of them from a young age. For instance, they might coach a youth soccer team or volunteer at a nearby camp. This activity gives Finnish-speaking au pairs practical experience with kids that they can draw on when they're caring for your children.
Driving Skills
In order to obtain your driver’s license in Finland, one needs to have acquired a minimum amount of instructed driving in addition to theory lessons. After passing a theoretical and driving exam, people of at least 18 years of age will be allowed to drive. Of course, your Finnish au pair will also be used to driving in challenging weather conditions such as heavy rain, snow or hail. Of course, it is always recommended that you discuss your driving needs when interviewing au pairs.
Education
The Finnish school system is renowned for its high academic standards and results. With English being a mandatory subject starting at elementary school, Finns usually have very good English skills; in fact, they are amongst the best English speakers in Europe. Your Finnish au pair might also be able to speak Swedish fluently, as it is the second official language in Finland.
Sports are an important facet of education as well. Many Finns enjoy outdoor activities such as skiing and ice skating. Because of the long daytimes during the summer, they can spend a great deal of time outside, enjoying nature. This common interest sparks many lessons, and teachers often incorporate the outdoors and physical education into their curriculum.
Communication and Language Skills
On Finnish TV, programs are shown in their original language. Many Finnish children watch English television shows and movies and learn dialect and pronunciation from these examples. Of course, knowing how to speak the language and doing it in a live setting are two different things, and your au pair may need some encouragement to display their English skills.
Finns may be shy the first time they meet someone. It helps to engage them by talking about things they feel comfortable with and show enthusiasm for, such as sports and nature.
Religion
The majority of residents in Finland are Christian, including many Protestants. A large number are atheist, while a small minority practice Islam or Hinduism.
Diet
Finnish cuisine largely mirrors that of other Scandinavian countries. It relies on common ingredients such as berries, seafood and buttermilk as well as rye and barley. It's not unusual for Finns to eat reindeer too, for protein. Because of the harsh weather in Finland, the country imports a lot of its food rather than growing it.

I'm very open-minded, caring, responsible and always enthusiastic. Those close to me describe me as a ray of sunshine who's always smiling and full of positive energy. I'm also very flexible. I’ve chosen to become an au pair to discover life and share moments with a new family, while being immersed in another culture and language. I'd like the family to consider me as one of its members. I'd like us to share unforgettable moments as a family, and I'd like the children to want to discover my country. I'd also like to keep a link with the family afterwards and be able to come back to see them.

I have always been very interested in learning from children, I love to share activities with them because they always teach you even though they do not have a higher education and what I mean is that they show you how to be a person with their kindness and affection. I would like to experience new changes in my life and to be able to offer my skills to the culture, to show my culture to the world because it is one of the most beautiful that you can know in terms of gastronomy, music and history, besides this I feel that I am a committed person, responsible with what I propose and you will feel that when I take care of the children. I am very charismatic, I see the positive in everything even if things do not go as planned, and I do everything with love because I feel that makes the situations look more pleasant.

I've been looking after children as I've been working as a group leader in extra-curricular and day-care centers since I graduated from high school, and I love spending time with children, teaching them things and helping them grow. I've decided to become an aupair in the United States because I want to mix my two passions, traveling and taking care of children. I'd like to become an au pair in the United States because ever since I was little I've loved traveling, discovering new cultures and above all I'd like to practice my English. I am passionate about music and am also happy to give guitar or drum lessons if the children want to start.

The Au Pair exchange program has interested me since high school. Now that I’ve graduated, I’ve applied to the program in the U.S. because of its diverse culture and welcoming environment. I’m eager to exchange cultures and improve my English. I believe I’m well-suited for the EurAupair program. I adapt quickly to new environments and value others' perspectives. I love children and understand the challenges of parenting. I have experience caring for kids from infancy to adolescence, and I truly enjoy watching them grow.

I want to be an Au pair because I consider myself a person who has a good connection with children, specially those who always needs special cares. In my experience as an aunt, cousin, nanny and teacher (at some point in my high school), I achieved that empathy that is needed to understand them, knowing how they feel and supporting them in every task with the goal to teach them not just a scholar lesson, also to make them learn about life.
