Work abroad in Caroline's family for 6-18 Months starting from Jun 2023 as an Au Pair to take care of 2 children of 0 - 1 year old & 1 - 5 years old in Märsta, Sweden

We’d foremost like someone who would fit in well with the family, someone relaxed who doesn’t mind a quieter lifestyle but who also enjoys spending time outside, going to e.g museums, and maybe joining us if we travel.

We don’t know exactly what an average work day would look like since the new baby hasn’t arrived yet, but most likely you would in the beginning help more with our son (play, go outside, prepare a simple meal). And later you would probably help with some baby duties as well, comfort and hold the baby, change diapers, help feed etc. Very rarely would you have to take care of both kids alone at the same time (it all would depend on how comfortable you’ll feel and how the baby is doing).

Mom speaks Greek as well but not like a native, which is why we’d love someone fluent in Greek who could help the children learn the language, but we’re also interested in someone who speaks Spanish or Mandarin.

Since it’s recommended by doctors that anyone close to a newborn has been vaccinated against Whooping Cough no more than 8-10 years prior, we would like someone who has done that (and all standard childhood deseases like Measels etc. of course). Similarly, we’re a reasonably cautious family so we’d prefer if you have been vaccinated against Covid as well.

We’ll of course help you sign up for Swedish language classes if that’s something you’d like to do. And if you during your free time you’d like to earn extra money we know of at least one other family in the neighborhood who often needs a babysitter.
We would also like someone who has had some first aid and CPR training, but if you haven’t, it’s not a problem as long as you’re willing to take a course while you’re here in Sweden that we pay for.
