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.

It’s very simple, I really love to take care of children. I like the position of a big sister, but my brother is meanwhile too old to take care of him. The shiny eyes of the little cuties or the love that they give you. I enjoy to spend time with them and to do a lot with them. Apart from that I always wanted to get to know other cultures like the American one. I looking forward to spending thanksgiving Christmas or all the public holidays with you because I think they are completely different from them here in Germany.

From a very young age, it was my love and affection to care for children: I studied in a school with an emphasis on children's pedagogy from sixth grade until eighth grade as well as in ninth grade, I also started my pedagogical practices. I am a responsible, honest, obedient, loving, punctual, creative, clean, patient, and happy person.

Comments
I want to be an au pair, because I love being with kids, sharing my time with them and learning new things together. I think my strengths are that I´m a very responsible person, organized, positive and mature. What I have learned from caring of children, is that many times we underestimate them, and they can do more things than we can imagine, I have always believed that we have to let children play in the way they want, measuring the risks they probably don't see and guiding them to do things in a safe way. I think that we should not limit children, or convey them our fears, only guide them, if we fall, just laugh and try it again.

I helped to change her diapers, fed her and watched her when she was a baby. Now, I spend time with her helping with homework, playing with her, etc. Between 2017-2018 I helped in a primary school with children ages 5 to 7 years old.

Comments
I am first aid certified. There are several reasons why I want to become an Au Pair. First of all, I really like children and I think, they can even teach us things, like using our imagination and finding creativity again which we may have lost over the years. I love them because they represent all the innocence which we lost growing up and I love seeing how they develop and learn new things every day. They are just so full of life. Furthermore, I want to improve my English skills, meet new people and I’m sure, one year, maybe two years far away from home will let me grow more as a person.

This is a big opportunity to me because I truly believe that I´m the perfect person to take care of children because I love kids and I have a lot of skills that can be helpful and I can help them to develop, I also want to improve my English level and to have new experiences and see by myself how life is in other places.
