Sweden
Located in Northern Europe, Sweden is one of the Scandinavian countries, together with Norway and Denmark. Openness and equality are the key values of the Swedish culture; your au pair will expect to be treated fairly but will also treat others with respect.

Located in Northern Europe, Sweden is one of the Scandinavian countries, together with Norway and Denmark. Openness and equality are the key values of the Swedish culture; your au pair will expect to be treated fairly but will also treat others with respect. You can expect your Swedish au pair to openly communicate with you.
The family in Sweden is extremely important. It is shown by law and policies (such as one of the best maternity or paternity leave, or the right to reduce your workload until your child is 8 years old) but also by promoting family-friendly environments in restaurants & parks or in public transportation.
In Sweden most children get involved in extra-curricular activities, and this carries through later in life. As a result, your Swedish au pair will most likely have child care experience through coaching children at sports clubs or volunteering in child care related organizations.
Swedes will typically move out of their parents’ home to pursue post-secondary education, unless they study in the same city, in which case they may move out in their mid-twenties. In Swedish families, all family members participate in chores, so you can expect your Swedish au pair to naturally help around the house and with common chores.
In order to obtain a driver’s license in Sweden, one must attend driver’s education classes and a practical class on driving in poor conditions; then come the theoretical and practical tests. A learner’s permit can be obtained at 16 years old and a full driving license at 18. It is always recommended that you discuss your driving needs with au pairs during the interview process.
You can expect your Swedish au pair to be very proficient in English, in reading and writing thanks to the educational system but also in listening and speaking since most content in the media or movies on TV are not translated, only subtitled.

Child Care Experience
Since January 2014, I've looked after a group of children ages 2 to 12 years old. I do activities with the children, supervise them and prepare meals for them. I volunteered at my church from March 2021 to April 2024 leading youth groups. I had supportive conversation with the teenagers, talking about their everyday life, prepared snacks with them and played with them. I've looked after my younger sister, Sigrid (10), since she was a toddler. I pick her up from school, prepare meals, bath her, do chores with her, help with homework and put her to bed. Finally, I looked after Harald (2) in October 2022. I changed diapers, prepared meals, played with him and comforted him when needed.
Sports, Interests and Hobbies
Spending time with my family and friends, being on the country side, riding horse, taking walks. I enjoy arts and crafts. When I was younger I played soccer, floor ball and like playing most ball sports.

I want to become an au pair since I love children and taking care of children has always been a part of my everyday life. Both from caring for my sister but also being involved in children's groups in church the past 10 years. Children gives such a joy and warmness to me. My brother is an au pair right now and has been a big inspiration to discover the US. I do want to learn more about the American culture, become part of an American family and live the real American life. I hope to gain more knowledge about your culture but also to share mine.
Child Care Experience
I've babysat Alvin (3) since January 2019, a few hours a week. I drive him to activities and school, prepare meals, help with homework, play with him, bathed him when he was younger, put to bed and read to him. I worked at a horse stable from June 2017 to June 2020 teaching horseback riding to children ages 7 to 9 years old. I helped out with the lessons, prepared the horses, and comforted and encouraged the children. I've babysat Agnes since January 2018 a few hours a month. I play with her, prepare meals, help with homework, take her to the horse stable, give baths, and put to bed.

Comments
I want to become an AuPair because it's something I’ve always been interested in. It offers the unique opportunity to immerse myself in a new culture, build lasting relationships, and gain valuable experience working with children. I have always enjoyed spending time with kids, whether it's helping them with homework, playing games, or simply being a role model. I believe that by being an au pair, I can create a positive impact on their lives while learning and growing myself. Living with a host family will allow me to truly understand and appreciate the traditions, lifestyle, and language of a new country. I see it as a chance to step out of my comfort zone and develop a sense of independence. Not only will I gain practical experience in childcare and improve my language skills, but I will also build lasting friendships and make unforgettable memories along the way.
