Art, history, science, the Eiffel Tower, delicious baguettes — France is famous for many things. When looking for a culturally enriching experience for your children, you should consider a French au pair. Your children will enjoy hearing a new language from their au pair while also learning about new things. The wisdom of using live-in child care from France is that you benefit in many ways beyond simply finding a caregiver. Your entire family will learn more about French culture from in many ways:
- Your children can learn about French traditions and experience them first-hand (such as making crepes on Mardi Gras!);
- Your children can be exposed to a new language as your au pair can read them stories in French or teach them the alphabet in French;
- Your family can ask questions and hear from a native how growing up and living in France really is.
When you use EurAupair to host an au pair from France, you can feel secure you’re getting the best possible match for your family’s needs. We have been connecting au pairs from Europe, South America and Africa with American families for three decades, and we know how to find a fit that’s right for everyone.
Getting to Know Your Au Pair From France
The French culture is a mix between Northern and Southern Europe. A live-in nanny from France may be more punctual than a Spanish au pair for example, but will be more flexible on schedule than say a German au pair. Typically, French au pairs will be able to communicate any issues or concerns and will enjoy participating in the family life.
French couples have on average two children. While large families are less common than they use to, France still has one of the highest average number of children per family in Western Europe. French people have rather strong family values and will typically gather every evening as a family for dinner and meet for hours-long meals with near-by relatives on weekends and holidays. You can usually expect your French au pair to enjoy cooking and to participate in your family dinners and get-togethers.
French 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.
French au pairs will usually have experience in doing private baby-sitting as well as being camp counselors. The French BAFA is a certificate for young adults (17+ years old) to become qualified camp counselors during holidays or during the summer. Some French high school students receive first aid instructions although it is not a mandatory part of their curriculum.
The French’s driver’s exam (written and practical) is very challenging. One can drive with a parent in the car from 16 years old but the driver’s license can only be obtained at 18 years old. Dozens of hours of actual driving experience is required to obtain a license. Public transportation is well developed in large cities but young adults outside of the main cities will most likely own a car and drive regularly. It is always recommended that you discuss your driving needs with your au pair.
French students are required to learn two foreign languages (starting in middle school) and English must be one of the two. The English curriculum in France will focus a lot on reading and writing so French student will usually be better in writing and reading than listening and speaking. It may be useful with your French au pair to write down any guidelines and schedule to make sure they are understood. Also, it is not uncommon for the French to think that their spoken English is way worse than what it actually is!
Host a French Au Pair
Educate your children about a different culture by finding a live-in French nanny. Participate in an exchange experience that will enrich your family’s life by helping you learn more about France and the rest of the world.

I want to become an au pair since I was a child because I love take care of children and I always had the desire to learn English and discovering the American culture. It's the perfect program to combine the two. I had the experience to taking care of a little boy Baptiste (6 years old), every Wednesday during 7 months, and I loved this experience. We have doing a lot of activities and create a bond of friendship. It was this experience that I knew that I wanted to become an au pair. I'm qualified to participate in the EurAupair program because I'm very attentive, I have many ideas for activities to do. I take a lot of initiatives and I know how to adapt to all situations. I am very mature, respectful and attentive.

I have a deep passion for American culture, particularly its language, music, appeal, and landscapes. Caring for children aged 4 to 13 has strengthened my commitment to their well-being and education. I've introduced children to various activities, such as new sports, music genres, cuisines… My top priority has always been children's safety, and I've developed conflict resolution skills. These experiences have allowed me to form meaningful connections with the children I've cared for. That's why I feel qualified to participate in the EurAuPair program. Also, I easily adapt to new environments, having traveled alone across Europe as soon as i turned 18. While my English skills are a work in progress, I'm eager to become an au pair to develop them. This experience is a chance to improve my English and prepare my future career as a flight attendant.

As an au pair, I participate in the program for several significant reasons. Firstly, I'm passionate about discovering new cultures and experiences. Joining a host family abroad allows me to immerse myself in a different culture, learn a new language, and broaden my horizons. Secondly, I have a genuine love for children and a desire to contribute to their well-being. Being an au pair lets me create a nurturing environment, support their growth, and engage in educational activities. Additionally, the program offers a chance to improve my language skills through daily immersion. Lastly, I value the opportunity to build lasting relationships with a host family, learning from their lifestyle and creating unforgettable memories. Overall, participating as an au pair combines my love for cultural exploration, childcare, language development, and meaningful connections with a host family.

I am not afraid of being silly when I play with kids! For example, I'm ok to wear costumes, I come in their world and laugh with them. I have a lot of experience with children. I learned a lot of things regarding children and their interests. I love children and they love me! When I'm with children, I try to give them self-confidence. I help them to grow up with love and joy. I am serious, discreet and I follow the rules that my employer gives me. I am dynamic, positive and patient. I am someone that you can totally trust in because I am honest and loyal.

I love being in contact with children, creating activities for them, helping them to achieve their goals, supporting them so that they can blossom fully during their childhood and adolescence. For me, it's also a way of living out the role of "sister" that I wasn't lucky enough to have. I would be delighted to be part of your family. I like helping kids acquire new skills, express themselves, create, develop and blossom on a daily basis. I want to support them and be someone with whom they can feel at ease.

I would like to be able to discover a new life as well as a new culture and above all to join a family and beyond taking care of the children, to play the role of a big sister and not an employee. I think I can bring a lot to the children, and above all be very present for them. My experience working with children in France pushed me to go and experience this adventure in the United States and pushed me to offer attention and love to other children. I have first-aid training and experience working with kids with special needs.

I want to become an aupair because I love children very much for what they bring: joie de vivre and lively spirits. Also because i want an experience the culture of other countries, especially in the USA.I consider myself qualified because I'm a good listener and am always there to help them whether for homework or in everyday life. I can help them develop in a stable and caring environment. I also want them to learn to have confidence but to be kind to others and not give up no matter what happen in their life and be humble.

I have always loved looking after children and always had beautiful experiences. I feel comfortable with all ages. I really created a bond with a little girl next door who I babysit, and I've watched her grow up. She's like family now, and this babysitting experience made me want to be au pair. I'm helpful, patient, calm and energetic by nature. I have first-aid training.
