Au Pair in Frankreich: Taschengeld, Arbeitszeiten, Urlaub

✖

I would like to certify that our experience with Mia Hoiberg who stayed as an au-pair in our family last year (for 10 months) could not have been better. She was a great match for our family, and I think she was very happy living in Paris and having us as welcoming family. Mia was incredibly caring, funny, full of creative ideas that our two children loved to follow when playing with her, and she was also very responsible. As parents of young kids (3 and 6), it is incredibly important to trust the person who is taking care of them. And we had complete trust in Mia. She was also responsible for bringing our oldest kid to school, which involved a 20 min bike ride in the dense city of Paris, and she was probably more competent that I would ever be (and I am their mother) thanks to her past biking experience in Denmark. She established a strong bond with our children, and it was a pleasure to come back home and to see them having a lot of fun. Mia also made the efforts to study French during the entire time of her stay and made tremendous progress in learning the language. She was a devoted student and she also made a lot of friends, who provided her the social contacts that are also necessary when you are a young person living in a foreign country. Her openness to new people and to a new culture, her friendliness and her constant positive mood are key qualities that made her so wonderful to be with. I have no doubt that she can become anything she puts her mind on and I encourage her to pursue her studies and choose an interesting career. We hope to keep in touch with Mia for a long long time in the future and to hear from her adventures and choices. We already miss her!

Meine Erfahrung war fantastisch, ich habe mich sehr gut in die Familie integriert und sie waren sehr zuvorkommend und die Kinder waren wirklich nett, ich hatte die beste Zeit meines Lebens mit ihnen. Ich habe es geliebt. Die Kinder liebten es, draußen zu sein, die meiste Zeit gingen wir in den Park, gingen spazieren und am Abend, wenn die Kinder schlafen, habe ich mich mit meinem Gastvater und meiner Gastmutter hingesetzt und ein paar Geschichten erzählt, es war wirklich lustig.

We welcomed Natalia as an pair during 2 months, to help us with our (almost) 2 year-old twins. It was a lovely experience, as Natalia is such a kind and fun person, doing great with the babies. We really miss her !

Eine großartige Erfahrung mit Irene, die es verstand, sich um die Kinder zu kümmern und sie jeden Tag zu vielen Aktivitäten zu bewegen (Fahrrad, Schwimmbad, See, Spaziergang in den Bergen, Wald und manuelle Aktivitäten, wenn das Wetter es nicht zuließ)! Die Kinder sind Fan, es ist eine Schande, dass sie nicht länger bleiben konnte.
