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.
The United States was once ruled by Great Britain, up until the Revolutionary War. Because of these close ties, there are many basic similarities between the United States and Great Britain.

General Facts About Great Britain
You will learn many interesting things about the countries of Great Britain when you welcome your au pair into your home. Here are just a few:

When you host an au pair from the UK, you'll learn so much about their culture and way of life.
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.
Driving Skills
Residents of Great Britain can get their driving license when they are 17 years old. They first must pass a written exam and then a practical exam to receive their full driver's license.
Education
The education system in Great Britain is very similar to that of the United States. They have primary, secondary and higher education levels. Students may enroll in state schools or independent schools. Children in Great Britain are required to stay in school at least until they are 16, but many stay in school until they are 18. Most students enroll at a university as well.
Communication and Language Skills
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.
Religion
The official religion of Great Britain is Christianity. They have churches for many different denominations, just like the United States. Other common religions in Great Britain are Hinduism, Islam, Sikhism, Buddhism and Judaism.

Today, people in Great Britain and the United States enjoy many of the same foods. However, Great Britain has many more traditional dishes that are not found in the United States. Some popular dishes are toad in the hole, cottage pie, Yorkshire pudding, shepherd's pie and bangers and mash.

I don’t want to sound cliché, but since I started taking care of kids I discovered that they are actually the future of every society and how important it is to give them the tools for creating conscience at their own way, and enjoying the process for. Also I love the energy of being in an interactive relationship with younger lifes. I have learned a lot from kids. And of course I think it’s the perfect experience to meet another culture and learning English. I am very energetic, empathic, creative, meditative and respectful with people around me. The Beatles said once: All you need is Love, and I believe in that.

My decision to become an Au Pair is based on the love I feel for children since I was a child. I am currently a teacher and for me being an Au Pair is a decision that excites me a lot because for me it would be a wonderful experience to do what I love, which is to live, teach and take care of children, and what better than doing it in another country, with another culture, customs and a new family to meet. I consider myself a very loving, respectful, kind person, who admires and values the feelings of others. As a teacher and future Au Pair I can say that I am very qualified to take care and live with children, I can teach them, take care of them, be part of their families and contribute positively in everything that concerns children. I have skills in first aid, swimming, teaching children, creativity, experience in activities related to fine and gross psychomotor skills with children.

I would like to be an Au Pair because I enjoy being with children, that remind me of my childhood, love teaching and enjoy the energy and creativity of children. I believe that childhood is the best stage of life and should be treated as such. I have a great fondness for children, as they inspire me to be better and give my best effort at all times. Working with them has taught me patience, teamwork, responsibility, and the importance of being mindful of the impact I have on their environment. I would like to teach them that dreams can come true, be a role model for them, and help them develop their strength. I consider myself a good choice because I am strong, patient, focused, and perseverant with everything I set out to do, and I would like children to learn to be like that. You should select me because I consider myself really punctual, I like to be early in my job and I get along with children.
