What to Expect From Your Au Pair From Namibia
Culture in Namibia is a blend of many different people and its culture and customs have absorbed both African and European elements and fused them into a blend of the two. With just 2.1 persons per square kilometer and a population of 2.5 million, Namibia's different cultures span an impressively diverse population for what is a sparsely populated country.
In Namibia, most households are not nuclear families but contain other kin as well. Parents receive substantial help with child-rearing from other family members. It is not unusual for children to live with other relatives if the parents have work obligations, the child needs to be closer to school, or a relative needs a child's help.
Namibian Au Pairs are hard-working and easy going. They come from a rich and diverse cultural and ethnic background and will bring their knowledge to your family.

I am passionate about becoming an au pair to gain extensive experience in childcare and to immerse myself in American culture. I have a deep love for children and enjoy engaging in fun and educational activities with them. My ultimate goal is to positively impact the lives of children, both now as an au pair and in the future through my envisioned organization. I believe this program will positively transform my life. I want to join to adapt to living abroad and away from my family. I am confident in my qualifications, given my extensive experience in childcare. I love playing with and caring for children and am committed to going the extra mile to have the best au pair experience possible.

I have a passion for cultural exchange and working with children, and I want to become an au pair in the USA. I am very good with children and I like to interact with them on their level. I am infant care qualified and have strong communication skills. I am responsible, reliable, and dedicated to the well-being and development of the children I care for. My empathetic nature, organizational skills, and enthusiasm for learning make me a valuable addition to any host family through the EurAupair program.
