Expectations for the Au Pair
We expect our Au Pair to be a responsible, friendly, and reliable person who supports our family with commitment and a positive attitude. It is important to us that you have a genuine interest in working with children and enjoy being part of our family life. We would like you to maintain open and respectful communication and feel as comfortable with us as we hope to feel with you.

We are looking for someone who is reliable and punctual, but also flexible and empathetic, able to meet the diverse needs of our children. You should be willing to embrace new experiences and actively engage in our family’s daily life. While respecting our values and rules, you will also have the freedom to feel at home in our household.

Duties of the Au Pair
Childcare:
The main responsibility of the Au Pair is the loving care of our two children. You will help us organize the daily routine with the children, care for them, and support their development for about 30 hours per week. Your tasks include:

Playing and creative activities: You will help the children get creative – for example, through painting, crafting, or singing. Outdoor activities such as walks, small outings, or visits to the playground are also part of the job.
Supporting development: You will assist the children with simple learning activities, such as reading to them, playing, or discovering new things that spark their curiosity.

Daily routines: You will help with tasks such as taking the children to and from daycare, washing them, getting them dressed, putting them to bed, and feeding them.

In addition to childcare, we expect you to help with light household tasks related to the children, such as:
Unloading the dishwasher
Tidying up the children’s rooms and picking up toys
Preparing snacks or simple meals for the children
Assisting with washing and sorting the children’s clothes
Accompanying on outings:
Occasionally, you will also help with outings, whether to a park, a museum, or other activities that are exciting and educational for the children.

In summary: We are looking for someone who not only takes responsibility and helps with our daily routines but also actively contributes to the development and well-being of our children. Your role as an Au Pair is not just a job position but also an opportunity to become part of our family, spend time together, and learn about Swiss culture.
