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.

Since I was young, I always wanted to go to the U.S so it was obvious to me right away that if I want to do an au pair year it will be in the U.S. An au pair is the right choice for me because I love to interact with younger children since I was a kid. I always get along with the kids right away and have a lot of fun with them because I am a very open-minded and positive person. As I am a very empathetic person, I was always able to bond with the children very quickly and gain their trust. This is because I can put myself in children's shoes very well. In addition, I’m a very patient person and I’m open for action, but at the same time I am also open for more calm things. I never lose a sight on the kid’s safety and have no problem setting clear rules and taking responsibility

I would like to participate in the Au Pair exchange program, because I love working with children and it gives me a lot of joy and fun. Children close you so quickly in the heart and the time together is always great, so I would definitely like to travel to the U.S. with EurAupair and work there with a host family with the children. In addition, I have always been interested in America and it has always been a dream of mine to get to know the American culture and holidays and to experience them with an American family. I would also like to travel through America and see the different states and get to know them, because each state is different. Of course, I would also like to improve my English and an au pair year is the perfect time to do so, because on the one hand you learn better English and on the other hand you learn the English that is spoken in everyday life in America.

I want to be an au pair because I expect to learn a lot about myself. Moreover, I am convinced I will gain confidence and become more self-sufficient as I will have to create or adopt another way of life for a year. I am not afraid of the challenge but look forward to this new adventure and I am open for every new experience. Not only I expect to learn from the work, the family, the different culture but also from the children I will look after. I am sure to be taught values that I will carry with me for life. I have chosen the USA to spend a year aboard because it is still called “The new world”. It is said to be the land of unlimited possibilities. It stands for freedom and progress. I am also curious about the different traditions, culture and way of life.

I’m very excited to get to know your culture and want to practice my English to speak more fluently. Being your au pair and part of your family would be a beautiful way to pursue that goal of mine. For me, being an au pair doesn’t just mean being your employee, I’d like to bake and cook together or play together. Moreover I’d love to support the development of the children and have a positive influence on them. I‘m sure that my lifelong with children Van help me.
