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 be an au pair because I want to deepen my level in English. I'm looking forward to meeting new people and I love children. I'm fascinated by the United States but want to see and experience it up close. I like taking care of children and I consider this important in the education of children. Because each thing we pass on to children will be forever engraved in their mind and way to act. I like interacting with children, introducing them to and learning new things like the cuisine of my culture.

I would like to become an au pair because I think it is an experience that could be unforgettable. I love taking care of children and playing with them. One of my greatest strengths I think is the family spirit because I come from a family of 3 children and we do a lot of family outings: skiing, canoeing, jet skiing, tree climbing, hiking... I know how to adapt to each child and their different needs.

I love being in contact with children and teaching them new things, such as French. I’d love to spend time with them, playing, having fun and helping them through their daily lives. I can be very patient with children and in general in everyday life. I’m also very punctual, which I think is an essential quality for an au pair. I want to partake in the au pair exchange program in the United States because I want to discover a new culture and a new country. I've always loved American films and TV series, I want to see their daily lives and the many festivals like Halloween, which is celebrated a lot in this country, whereas in France that's not the case.

I would be proud to be part of an American family. I am able to take care of the children, be present for them and accompany them in their everyday lives. I will consider them as my own brothers and sisters so that I can create strong bonds with them. I hope you will consider me as a member of your family and let me discover your culture such as Thanksgiving, the famous mac'n'cheese or that I can live the holiday season with you! I want to discover the way the family lives in the USA.

I'm the ideal au pair for your family because on a daily basis I am a kind, polite, responsible, trustworthy, honest, patient and serious girl. In addition, I have a very strong bond with children.

In order to better know your culture, your language, your country, your traditional dishes and your favorite activities. This experience would be more than beneficial for my future job as a teacher.

Being in a large family surrounded by children allowed me to become aware of the love I had for children, I love working with them, I am concerned about their education and well-being, so I decided to join an association as a volunteer to help young people from disadvantaged communities do their homework. I am rigorous, patient and solar and wish to put these qualities into practice as part of this program. I am very appreciated by parents and maintain excellent contact with children.

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.
