Most people in Taiwan — a charming island state in East Asia — have traditional values based on Confucian ethics. These values remain strong, including piety toward parents, ancestor worship, a strong emphasis on education and work. You can expect your Taiwanese au pair to be very respectful and to want to be a part of your family. Reserved at first, your au pair will love to bond with your children and will probably have no issues picking up on your family’s routine.
EurAupair has been pairing host families and au pairs for over 30 years, and we're confident that you'll love your experience with one of our Taiwanese au pairs. Learning about the rich and unique Taiwanese culture from a live-in au pair is a highly rewarding and flexible option for your children's care.
General Facts About Taiwan
Hosting an au pair gives you and your children the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to learn more about her unique culture and customs. When you host an au pair from Taiwan, you'll learn fascinating facts about the country, including that:
- Over 23 million people live in Taiwan, making it the 17th most densely populated area in the world.
- Almost three million people live in the bustling capital city of Taipei.
- Mandarin is the country's official language, but other languages include English, Japanese and Vietnamese.
- The Taiwanese place a high emphasis on commitment and harmony.
Family Life and Children in Taiwan
Most couples in Taiwan will have one to two children. Grandparents may be living together with their children and grandchildren. Your Taiwanese au pair will most likely have experience caring for nephews or nieces, or by doing internships or trainings at school. Education is very important so you can expect your Taiwanese au pair to be good at helping with homework, teaching to count, etc.
The Taiwanese highly value honor and respect toward their elders, and multigenerational homes are common throughout the country. Most Taiwanese au pairs will treat you and any other adult relatives living in your home with the utmost care and respect. They might offer you their seat or wait for you before they begin eating.
Education
Public education is mandatory in Taiwan from nursery school to junior high. Students can further their education through high school and university after taking a series of national exams.The majority of Taiwanese high school graduates will further their studies, although they may continue to live at home until they graduate. Even so, they will typically participate in household chores from an early age and be quite independent.
Those who graduate with a Taiwanese education achieve some of the highest scores in the world, particularly excelling in math and science. The literacy rate is also extraordinarily high, at over 98 percent. Memorization is valued throughout schools in Taiwan, so you may find that your au pair is particularly good at memorizing your instructions.
English Language Skills and Communication
English is a compulsory subject taught in schools from Grade 3 and up. There has also been a huge growth of English immersion schools in the past decade, with teachers from English-speaking countries. Although speaking may be a little difficult at first, you can expect your Taiwanese au pair to be very eager to speak and improve!
The Taiwanese often prefer an indirect style of communication. Rather than asking questions that require a direct yes or no, ask open-ended questions to your au pair to allow them to contemplate answers. She may also often communicate non-verbally with gestures such as waving the palm back and forth to indicate a negative response.
Driving Skills
A driver’s license can be obtained at 18 years old, after taking a written and practical exam. Many people will own a scooter driver’s license which is a popular means of transportation. It is always recommended that you discuss your driving needs with your au pair during the interviewing process.
Religion
The three major religions in the country are Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism. Religious beliefs are diverse and incorporate aspects of traditional Chinese culture. Many behaviors and beliefs, such as deep respect for elders, stem from these religious concepts.
Diet
Pork, chicken and seafood are popular meat options, but your Taiwanese au pair may eat a primarily vegetarian diet due to the country's Buddhist influence. Rice and soy are both staples of a Taiwanese diet, and many drink tea or coffee throughout the day.

I am really interested to get to know other cultures and I like to take care of children. That is why I like the principle of the AuPair system. Since I ́m a trained childcare worker, I have many hours of experiences with kids. For every age, I have different ideas for different needs. I always know how to take care of them. I also know individual songs and games I can teach them playfully. I can put myself into the children so I can react better to their needs. Because of my endurance, I can deal with children for a long time. Along this, I can speak and understand kids on their level. I really like to cook. I learned to prepare balanced meals which I would love to do for you as well. As a team player, I very much enjoy working in a team with my host family. I do all my tasks with patience and lots of effort.

In addition to this, I believe that this is a big chance for me because I could improve my English skills to get a scholarship or to get a better job to improve my profile.

I have experience in caring for children with special needs. I am first aid certified. First, to nothing it’s something I wanted to do since I left high school and this year the opportunity presented and I took. One of the reasons I want to leave is to learn and practice my English, I also want to share culture, this program is perfect because it allows you to study and work at the same time. This program will help me meet new people, travel, mature, hold me accountable. As I said I have 3 years wanting to be an au pair in the USA, but I could not. Right now I feel prepared to take care of children, I am bigger, I understand things more, I am more patient to stay with kids. And the most important is because I like to care, children, I like the way how they see life, the innocent they are and everything with them is play and to finish I want to be part of another family.

I want to be an au pair because it gives me the opportunity to know another culture, to study and live new experiences. I appreciate the opportunity to be part of your family to share time and interact with the children, putting into practice my skills at the service of your home. In addition, it helps me to make an exchange for my professional and personal growth as one of the purposes that I have.
