Au Pair in Germany: Information on the Program

Really nice Aupair. Working very good with the kids and is helping in the household.

My Au-pair experience with my host family was one of the most important and wonderful times of my life. When I came to Germany at the age of 19, everything was new and unfamiliar to me. I was far away from my family, had to get used to a new language, and find my way around a foreign country. Of course, I was scared and felt very insecure at first. But my host mother and host father made me feel welcome and safe from day one. The host mother was truly the heart and soul of the household. She was very caring, organised, and always actively involved in everyday family life. She lovingly looked after the children while making sure I felt comfortable. Whenever I had questions – whether about everyday life, cultural differences, or official documents – she explained everything to me calmly and patiently. She was a great support to me, especially during my visa extension. She helped me with the paperwork, accompanied me through important steps, and eased my worries. She was also there for me in my personal life. When I felt homesick or insecure, she encouraged me and built me up. The host father was just as warm and supportive. He was calm, understanding, and respectful. He treated me not only as an Au-pair, but as a real member of the family. Whenever I needed help or advice, I could always talk to him. He took the time to talk to me and showed me that my opinion was important. Together, my host mother and host father created a warm, stable, and loving atmosphere. The children were simply wonderful. They were cheerful, curious and full of energy. I played with them every day – we often went outside, romped around in the garden or laughed on the playground. Indoors, we painted, did crafts and invented little games. I also enjoyed cooking for them, and it made me happy when they liked my food. This time was more than just a cultural exchange. It was a heartfelt, formative experience that made me stronger, more independent, and more grateful.

Super, everything worked out very quickly. Always happy to use the site again!!!

It is with much enthusiasm that we recommend Cainã for inviting into your family. He took care of our son truly phenomenal. Cainã understood and felt him almost without any language and very soon they bounded. He engaged with our son both intelligent and compassionate. Actually Cainã was much more than an Aupair for us. During his stay in our family our son became more calm, learnt quite a few new valuable skills, got much more structured in his daily life and much more attentive when talked to. And everything was made with a lot of joy. He also helped our son to cope with unknown and stressful situation with a lot of patience and could very good comfort him. Cainã integrated into our family naturally and has become a member of it. We wish him best luck in his future endeavors.
