Great Britain, sometimes used interchangeably with the United Kingdom, is a group of countries made up of England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Great Britain is a network of islands located to the north of continental Europe.

Family Life and Children in Great Britain
Similar to the United States, the nuclear family is a common structure in Great Britain. However, that family structure is also changing. Most British households are small, allowing them greater mobility and less financial stress on the family.
Families in Great Britain teach their children to be independent and self-reliant from the very beginning. This type of upbringing gives your au pair from Great Britain the skills they need to learn a new environment and take on their responsibilities easily and enthusiastically.

Most students enroll at a university as well.

The official language of Great Britain is English. However, there are also many regional languages and dialects spoken in the different regions of the country. There are also many different languages spoken in cities by immigrant citizens.

While working with kids, I had the chance to discover how special and unique it is to create a bond with a child, and how much I adore to be the person they can trust and feel safe with.

I like to be punctual so I enjoy organizing my week ahead. I enjoy spending my free time learning about different cultures. At the same time, that is also what I would like to promote to the children: to be curious about the world that surrounds them, and to be curious about life itself!

Thanks to my profession I will contribute to the development of a child so that it is the best possible, also that will help me to improve my English skills. Added to this, being in an environment and different culture from mine will give me a different vision of what the world is and try to make a difference. Caring for children is not just watching over them and that is it, it is getting involved in their childhood, in their psychosocial and emotional development so that they grow up with the confidence that they have a unique potential.
