Cultural Embrace currently has many families in Germany, Belgium, Holland, France, Spain, and Italy who are looking for Au-pairs to begin this fall and care for their children throughout the academic year. As an Au-pair, you're much more than a hired-hand of a nanny--you're a part of the family! As the new coordinator for Cultural Embrace's European programs, I've previously served as a teacher in a Texas middle school with Turkish administration, so
I share your love of interesting cultures and the learning moments they lead to.
To qualify for the program, you must be between the ages of 18-30, have childcare experience, and a beginner's knowledge of the host country's language.
Our Germany and Netherlands programs are new additions. If you've ever considered being an Au Pair in a European country, consider Germany! Known as the land of poets and thinkers (Einstein, Kafka, Mozart, etc.), Germany also offers great opportunities for exploration of cuisine, cinema, and sports (not to mention being the transportation hub of Western Europe!). Now, for some details on just a few of the German families we have available:
- Michelstadt, Hesse (rural area)
A lovely family with one 6 year old girl, looking ASAP. The Au Pair doesn't need to drive but must be a non-smoker. Main duties are walking the girl to and from school, preparing lunch, playing games, and light housework for ~30 hours a week. Includes a private room, shared bath, and $340/monthly. Start is ASAP for 6-12 months. I've also attached a picture. :)
- Geiben, Hesse (university town)
Family of a single mother, girl (10), and a boy (6). Language school is in walking distance. Duties include bringing children home from school, playing, preparing dinner, and housework for ~26 hours/week. Private room and shared bathroom, and $360/month are included. Start is ASAP for one year.
- Espelkamp, North Rhine-Westphalia (rural area)
Family with three children, ages 13, 9, and 7 seeking Au Pair who can drive. They also have five guinea pigs, a cat and a horse (but Au Pair is not responsible for animals' care). Language school in walking distance. Includes private room and bathroom, and $340/month. Start: November 2010 for one year.
- Wiesban, Hesse (capital city)
A family with two children (6 and 8). The family's hobbies include skiing, biking, barbecue parties, and traveling. Duties include taking children to and from school, homework help, playing, and reading to them. Private room and bathroom, and $450/month.
In France, Spain, Belgium, Holland, and Italy, we have many families looking for Au Pairs to begin in September and October. One family in Paris with three children (twins aged 14, and one 8) offering a private bedroom and bathroom and $400/month, looking for 10 month commitment beginning in October. Another family in Levallois Perret with three children (3, 1, and 6months) offering a private bedroom, bathroom shared with kids, and $500/month, looking for September 1st for 10 months. And many more families in Paris, Joinville le Pont, Neuilly, Chatou, and locations throughout Spain, Belgium, Holland and Italy.
