Astonishing natural heritage of lakes and mountains, extraordinary train system, watches, non-interference policy, multi-language country, delicious cheese, and chocolate — Switzerland is famous for many things. When looking for a culturally enriching experience for your children, you should consider a Swiss au pair. Your children will enjoy hearing a new language from their live-in nanny while also learning about new things.
The wisdom of using live-in child care from Switzerland is that you benefit in many ways beyond simply finding a caregiver. Your entire family will learn more about the Swiss culture from in many ways:
- Your children can learn about Swiss traditions and experience them first-hand (such as making cheese topped meal every day!);
- Your children can be exposed to a new language as your au pair can read them stories in French, German or Italian as she usually speaks at least two languages of her country;
- Your family can ask questions and hear from a native how growing up and living in Switzerland really is.
When you use EurAupair to host an au pair from Switzerland, you can feel secure you’re getting the best possible match for your family’s needs. We have been connecting au pairs from Europe, South America, and Africa with American families for three decades, and we know how to find a fit that’s right for everyone.
Getting to Know Your Au Pair From Switzerland
The Swiss culture is a mix of Northern and Southern Europe. A live-in nanny from Switzerland may be more punctual than a Spanish au pair for example, but will be more flexible on schedule than say a German au pair. Typically, Swiss au pairs will be able to communicate any issues or concerns and will enjoy participating in the family life.
Swiss people have rather strong family values and will typically gather every evening as a family for dinner and meet for hours-long meals with near-by relatives on weekends and holidays. You can usually expect your Swiss au pair to enjoy cooking and to participate in your family dinners and get-togethers.
Swiss children will usually leave home at around 18 years old to pursue post-secondary studies in larger cities. They will get their own apartment and become independent at quite an early age.
Swiss au pairs will usually have experience in doing private baby-sitting.
The Swiss’s driver’s exam (written and practical) is very challenging. The driver’s license can only be obtained at 18 years old. Dozens of hours of actual driving experience is required to obtain a license. Public transportation is well developed in large cities but young adults outside of the main cities will most likely own a car and drive regularly. It is always recommended that you discuss your driving needs with your au pair.
Swiss students are required to learn two foreign languages (starting in middle school) and English must be one of the two.
Host a Swiss Au Pair
Educate your children about a different culture by finding a live-in Swiss nanny. Participate in an exchange experience that will enrich your family’s life by helping you learn more about Switzerland and the rest of the world.

I want to become an au pair because I've always felt a love for children, being surrounded by them makes me happy, and I enjoy helping them grow and develop. To me, it is enriching being a part of their life. I'm choosing the USA because I consider a country with a very interesting lifestyle and I'd love to learn about it. I have the ability to assume responsibility with dedication and commitment. Also, other strengths that I have are patience, understanding, and the love I feel for children. I also have the ability to adapt to situations the moment a problem arises and I like to find solutions. Lastly, I have experience teaching and am first aid certified.

When I started to study with my current English teacher, he taught me how important English is and showed me the au pair program because he had done one once. Since then, I have had dreams of studying, meeting new people, and learning new cultures. My biggest dream after the au pair program is to get into a university in Brazil to get a degree in literature and teach English to children. With the au pair program, I can have amazing experiences and bring new ideas to teach her in Brazil. I can do this program because I love children, I have a lot of patience with them, and because I would like to work with them in the future. This is the most perfect exchange program for me to do that.

I also babysat Mery (1) and Sophia (3) during this time for 12 hours a week. I would prepare snacks for them, play with them, change them, and help them with their homework when they were older.

Comments
I'd like to be an au pair because I think it is a very good experience that not only gives me the opportunity to be better in the English language but also gives me the opportunity to learn a new culture, meet new people, and live with a family outside of mine where I'll learn their customs and taste how they are as a family. I decided to choose the United States as my destination country because I think that the English language is a very important language since it is a universal language with which I can communicate anywhere in the world with.
