Getting to Know Your Au Pair From Germany
A German au pair will enjoy being part of a host family’s life, sharing family activities and making memories together. It is very important in the German culture to be on time; therefore German au pairs are known for being quite punctual. They appreciate clear guidelines and a schedule listing their au pair responsibilities. If any issues or concerns arise you can expect your German au pair to communicate them to you directly; and in return to appreciate honest feedback from you and their au pair contract.
Today's German family has on average one or two children. Even though families are not as large as they used to, it is at the center of one's life and family time is made a priority over some other social commitments. Spending time with immediate and extended family on weekends and during major holidays is very common. Your German live-in nanny will enjoy meeting all members of your family and spending traditional get-togethers with them.
Most young people in Germany finish high school or the equivalent between 16 to 18 years of age. Many then pursue post-secondary studies in larger cities and move away from home to live in their own apartment or share a place with roommates. Therefore, you can expect your German au pair to be quite independent when it comes to household chores, preparing meals and keeping the house tidy.
A live-in au pair from Germany will typically have experience babysitting the children of neighbors, friends and relatives. Many au pairs acquire additional experience by completing internships at a local kindergarten or day care center job in Germany. Quite a few German au pairs qualify as our Par Expérience au pairs: they may be a kindergarten or elementary school teacher or have a degree in social studies for personalized assistance.
In Germany, the minimum age to obtain a driver’s license is 17; but one needs to be accompanied by a parent in the car up to 18 years old with a driving license. It is fairly difficult to pass the written and practical exam, even after having finished driving school and having acquired many hours of driving experience. Most European driver's licenses, including German driver's licenses, are usually harder to obtain than in the United States. Especially in more rural areas, it is very common for young people to have their own car and drive daily to school, the gym or other activities. They should most likely be used to driving in challenging weather conditions, e.g. snow, ice and heavy rain. Of course, it is always recommended that you discuss your driving needs when interviewing au pairs.
Students at German schools are required to learn at least two foreign languages, one of them being English. Most German au pairs have been studying English since 5th grade, so their speaking and writing skills can on average be rated as very good to excellent. Generally, they will feel comfortable communicating in English when arriving to their host family.

I am qualified for an exchange program because I have extensive experience working with children. I am a very patient person who loves taking care of others. I enjoy teaching new things and approach my responsibilities with great care. I am empathetic, sensitive, and genuinely enjoy being part of children’s imaginative world, especially when I can join them in their little adventures. I am also creative and imaginative, and I love engaging in activities like painting, crafting, playing sports, and spending quality time with children. I believe I am well-suited for an au pair exchange year because I am caring, responsible, and dedicated. I look forward to spending a year in a foreign country, improving my language skills, and learning about new cultures.

I want to become an au pair because I’m very interested in American culture and would love to experience everyday life in the U.S. while improving my English. I truly enjoy working with children—they are enriching, and I love supporting their development. I also want to become more independent and take on new responsibilities, and I believe living far from home is the best way to grow personally. One of my biggest strengths is that I’m currently in practical training to become a nursery nurse. I have both hands-on experience and theoretical knowledge, and I’ve worked with children of all ages. I’m confident I can be a caring, reliable, and fun companion for the kids.

I thought about getting to the USA for a long time, because I always saw videos photos and more about people who live there. I find the USA fascinating and would love to experience the culture and traditions. Furthermore I love spending my time with children, playing with them or doing other things and more with them. This makes me happy, because I see those smiling faces. Then I watched some videos online, where others spokes positively about being an au pair and I researched what it is exactly about. And the thought, to get to know the USA and care about children of a family that I hopefully grow close to, is amazing.

I did an internship at an elementary school in November 2021 and in June 2022 taking care of children ages 6 to 11 years old.

I've looked after my cousin (2) since September 2023. I play with the child and prepare meals. I've assisted with a children's school choir since January 2023.

I want to become an Au Pair because I‘ve always been fascinated by the USA. From the movies, the history and holidays everything fascinates me. Which is why it’s been my dream from a very young age to experience the American life. But also working with children is a dream for me. I love working with kids and teenagers, which is why I want to become a teacher later and being an Au Pair is both dreams combined. I think I‘m qualified to participate in the program because being with people makes me complete. My strengths are that I never get bored and I can laugh at myself, but also that I can be very compassionate.

Becoming an au pair has been my dream, inspired by my fascination with American culture and my passion for working with children. When I visited the USA, I fell in love with its diversity and way of life. The Au Pair program offers the perfect opportunity to improve my English, experience a new culture, and grow personally by becoming more independent and adaptable. I am qualified for this program due to my experience babysitting younger cousins and family friends, where I organized fun activities, prepared meals, and ensured their well-being. I am also studying pedagogy, which has deepened my understanding of child development and how to support it. My strengths include responsibility, patience, and creativity, which I use to engage children in meaningful activities. I am excited to contribute to a host family while experiencing a cultural exchange that will shape my future.
