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 would like to use this experience for further development. Whether privately or professionally. It is a unique chance to experience America so intensively for a year. To discover the way of life up close. As they say in Germany "the land of unlimited opportunities". Experience the mutual cultural exchange with the American host family. To explore the hospitality, the country, the family life and their activities together. To accompany and support the children on their way. To be a caregiver/friend to them. Through my training as an educator, I can do this in a professional way. Childhood is an important time for development. My strengths include being reliable and responsible. I would describe myself as organized and attentive. I am always there and have an open ear. No matter if it is day or night. My sensitive side and empathy towards others I can show very well.

I want to be an au pair in America because it has always been a dream for me to spend time in this country and to improve my English even further. I am also looking forward to really getting to know a new culture in an American family. Later on I would like to work in a bilingual kindergarten and it is also good if I was able to gain some experience beforehand by being able to look after the children of a host family. I am suitable for the Au Pair program because I am child-friendly and have already had a lot of different experiences with children. I am very friendly, curious and interested in getting to know American culture better.

What characterizes me as a good au pair exchange is that I love to interact with children and spend time with them. I can offer your children both fun and games and a hand to guide them through life. I would describe myself as very organized and flexible. I am also very empathic and adaptable. It would be a pleasure for me to build a bond with your child. Since I never had a little sibling, but always wished for one, I would be very happy to play the big sister role for your child.

I want to become an Au pair in the USA, because I am interested in learning about the country, its culture, customs and traditions - not from the point of view of a tourist, but from a point of view of a member of an American family. I love children and enjoy spending time with them. I am a really calm, patient and friendly person, even in stressful situations. This will help me to even master difficult moments when the children are tired or do not want to listen to me.
