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.

Playing with children brings me back in time and allows me to remember and to feel as a little kid again. The little smile, makes my heart smile. It keeps me fit, healthy and joyful. The US is and forever will be my home. I love the American culture, school system and the way people behave there, the landscape and just everything. Together with my parents I travelled every summer to the US for three to five weeks. I have been to almost everywhere. And I am more than happy to hopefully see everything again. That is why I already spent more than half a year in the US. During my exchange year and it was the best that ever happened to me. The Au Pair program allows me to combine both of these dreams. I am emotional, which I would count as a positive character trait, because I am able to enjoy everything and always see the positive things, which makes me a pro in cheering up.

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.

Since the world is constantly changing, the values we acquire during childhood vary in each generation. I've always tried to share my childhood memories, the games we played, our fairy tales, and songs with the children around me. As an au pair, I can teach children the games, stories, and songs of both our cultures, allowing them to interact with different cultures. Moreover, I've realized that I can easily form strong bonds with children because I'm patient, empathetic, and understanding. I can confidently say that all the experiences I've gained in childcare have positively impacted me. Working with children enriches me, and I feel that each of them holds a special place in my heart. Therefore, being an au pair will be a beautiful experience for me while also providing the same care for your family.

I want to join this program to improve myself in English and in life because I think going alone in a place I have never been will make me more mature, and responsible. In addition, when I come back to my country I can use the knowledge and experience from this program I have gained as a teacher. I think I have qualified for this program because I graduated from teacher education and my studies were directly related to child care which made me understand and love children. My strength is that I am patient and responsible. When I have been assigned something, I will be able to complete it even if the assignment is difficult.

First of all having had different experiences with children that I love and make me feel good, and then to have a life changing experience, among all the programs this allows you to create a relationship with a new family, gives you the opportunity to fully live an experience in another continent, also being an only child is an experience that I have always wanted to do.
