Also known as Holland, the Netherlands is a country in Northern Europe that borders Belgium and Germany. The Netherlands has a strong connection to their history while keeping up with a changing society. After you welcome an au pair from this country into your home, you have the unique opportunity to learn about a culture that's different from your own — and in a deeply personal way. You and your children will love finding connections between yourselves and your au pair while understanding the differences.
General Facts About the Netherlands
If you host an au pair from the Netherlands, you and your family will learn many new and interesting facts about this country, including:
- The Netherlands is home to about 17 million people.
- The capital of the Netherlands, Amsterdam, is home to around 820,000 people.
- The official language of the Netherlands is Dutch, although Frisian is recognized as the official language of one region in the country, known as Friesland.
- Water is a dominant feature of the landscape of the country — it is home to three rivers and 26% of the country is below sea level.
Your au pair will be able to tell you even more about her home country as well as unique facts about the region and city where she is from.
Family Life and Children in the Netherlands
The family is very important to the people who live in Holland. Dutch families are very supportive of one another. If you host an au pair from the Netherlands, that cultural focus on the family will surely translate to their care for your children.
Driving Skills
Teenagers in the Netherlands can get their driver's license when they are 17 years old. First, you must take lessons at a driver's school when you first begin learning how to drive. Next, you need to take a written exam. There are also a few different practical exams that people in the Netherlands must pass in order to obtain their license. With so much emphasis on learning how to drive safely, your Dutch au pair should be able to transport your children safely. However, we highly recommend discussing driving during the interview process.
Education
Children in the Netherlands attend primary and secondary school for free until they are 16 years old. They can continue to go to school until they are 18 years old but must pay tuition at that point. Students have many options for schooling, including public, private and international schools.
Communication and Language Skills
The official language of the Netherlands is Dutch. One region, Friesland, gives residents the option of speaking Frisian as well, and there are also several other regional languages that are spoken. Many Dutch people also speak English and German.
Religion
Half of the population of the Netherlands does not identify with any religion. After non-religious affiliation, the majority of Dutch follow Christianity, with smaller percentages represented by Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism and Judaism.
Diet
Dutch cooking focuses on simplicity and many of their dishes are very straightforward. The diets of people in the Netherlands contain lots of vegetables and less meat than diets in the United States.

I want to participate in the Au Pair program cause I have taken care of different children and I had amazing experiences with them. 4 years ago I lived with a Canadian family, as a student exchange who had two children of 3 and 1 year old and I really enjoyed being with them as well as their behavior and education very interesting. It think it's incredible the way children in another country behave and act. I really what to develop their skills and put into practice all their values so they can be amazing people that believe that can achieve everything they want. I really have a lot of plans for children, I love cooking desserts, Mexican food in general and as I learned so many activities since I was a child I can share what I know and have a lot of fun. I am also a really punctual and organized person, so if children have to go to school they will always have everything ready and with their day full of many activities.
Child Care Experience
Between 2018-2019 I babysat/tutored Paul (12), I was helping him with his homework for a whole year and I really saw his improvements at school. We saw each other 2 times a week, we really bonded, and I gained his trust by making him feel at ease even though he had some difficulties at school. Additionally, I have been a camp counselor at multiple times taking care of children from 4 to 12 years old in total. I have been a camp animator in a bicycle camp and in a horse riding one. These camps were really different, yet I enjoyed both of them. During the horse-riding camp, I had the opportunity to share one of my passion with the children and it created a bond. Then, I was a volunteer in a ski camp, so I skied with children for a whole week.I taught them how to ski and it was really nice seeing them improve throughout the week.

I aspire to become an au pair in order to discover a new way of life, meeting new people and a new culture. Being an au pair is an opportunity for me to become more independent but also careful. It is a new experience that I believe will allow me to discover a new part of myself, through others. As I am a sister I know how to act with children, how to play with them, how to be patient and also how to make them laugh. I am a good listener and will do everything in my power to fulfill what is asked of me and I will always keep my smile. My cheerfulness shall never vanish in any circumstances!

The main reason why I want to be an au pair is that it is the fantastic worlds of the kids. Their minds are a whole different world to discover to me and I thought âwhat if the kids I would spend my time around would be from an another culture, wouldnât that be amazing?â then the answer I gave to my own self to this question of mine made me apply for the au pair program. I also want to learn US culture at first hand and I want to share Turkish culture while I improve my English speaking skills. I would be very happy if you accept me as part of your life as your Au Pair.

I want to experience the American culture but I was afraid of being all alone there, so far away from my home, which is why I think the au pair program is great. I want to become an au pair because I think the biggest benefit of this program is the way it provides us with a family in a country where we have never been before. I can't wait to have an American family that I can love and support, little sisters or brothers to have fun with, and host parents to ask for help when I need it.
