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. Even though there is some cultural overlap, hosting an au pair from Great Britain will give you and your family a wonderful learning experience.
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:
- The population of Great Britain is around 63.7 million.
- Since Great Britain is made up of multiple countries, it has several capitals. London is the capital of England, Edinburgh of Scotland, Cardiff for Wales and Belfast in Northern Ireland.
- Many sports were invented here, including golf, cricket, soccer, rugby and boxing.
- The different countries within Great Britain are all united under the same government but all have unique cultural identities.
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.
Diet
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 want to be an au pair because with children I can exploit my creativity and my imagination in every activity we do, it is nice that a child gives you the confidence to show you their passions and help them solve each challenge so they can shape their character, emotions and personalities in the best way. I have experience with children of different ages, and I have been able to learn how to handle difficult situations. Likewise, I have also taught groups of children with games where they develop great skills. This has helped me to be more mature and empathetic, in addition to knowing that children are growing, so we must be patient and lovely with them. Finally, I will be so happy learning all about your culture, routine, habits and customs and at the same time teaching you a little about mine.

First of all, I love spending time with children; they are the most loving and fun beings, and they help me grow so much as a person through everything they do.

I’ve always dreamed of traveling the world and experiencing different cultures, which is what drew me to becoming an au pair. The opportunity to live in the USA, to learn firsthand about American life, and to share parts of my South African heritage with a host family is incredibly exciting to me. I believe my love for working with children, along with my skills in organizing engaging activities, make me a great fit for the EurAupair program. I see myself as caring, creative, and dependable – I’m someone who genuinely cares for children and wants them to feel safe, happy, and inspired. My experience as a classroom assistant and in various childcare roles has helped me build patience, adaptability, and a positive outlook, which I know will help me adjust smoothly into a new family and culture.
