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.

In the past, I had different experiences that suit me to be a good au pair. For example, I used to take care of my friend’s sister-in-law’s daughter for three months. At other times I took care of the same girl and her baby sister for four months. The first time I heard of au pair, I was really interested in the opportunities I can have. Have the opportunity to live in a different country, get to know a new culture and people while I do something I love. This opportunity will not only help me professionally but discover myself as a person. It’ will help me improve my English and come back more prepared for my future career in Brazil. I'm a patient, responsible, caring and communicative person.

I would like to make a difference in the lives of children and I would love learn more about America. I have a lot of experience with regards to child development and I would love to create a special bond with a foreign family. I believe I have a lot to teach and I look forward to all the valuable lessons that my potential host family will teach me too. I have been an Au Pair before (in the Netherlands), so I know how to deal with being far away from home, how to deal with all sorts of children and how to really immerse myself in a new culture. I want to be a "big sister" to my host kids and create lasting memories with them.

First of all, I love sharing time and knowledge with kids, I feel happy, loving, and energetic among them. Being an Au Pair provides the perfect opportunity to work on what you really love; taking care of children and meeting, sharing, and learning among different cultures. Besides, I am delighted to have the opportunity to improve my English and get more confidence in the language. Thus, it would be a very rewarding process full of new experiences, for sure it could be the best memory of my life. Moreover, I feel qualified because, I studied for a bachelor's in English, and I have been teaching and surrounding kids from 2 years to 12 years. I consider myself emphatic, responsible, patient, resilient, persistent, creative, enthusiastic, energetic.
