Work abroad in Ina's family for 6-18 Months starting from Jun 2025 as an Au Pair to take care of 2 children of 6 - 10 years old in Norddeutschland, Schleswig-Holstein Germany

Thank you for your inquiries. We have found an au pair and are expected to be looking for another starting in January 2026.

➡️ We are Richard and Ina and live with our two children, Maya (8) and Simon (6), in beautiful Schleswig-Holstein.

As a family, we are looking for an au pair with very good English skills (at least C1) and little to no German skills – ideally none at all or at most A2. It is important to us that both parties can learn from each other and develop their language skills. Therefore, we prefer au pairs who are not yet fluent in German.

Our home is surrounded by nature and lakes and is close to the North and Baltic Seas. Starting in January 2026, we are looking for a loving and welcoming au pair (preferably an English native speaker) to become part of our family for a period of 6 to 18 months.

You will feel completely at home with us! We want you to be more than just a guest, but a full member of our family. You'll have the opportunity to learn a lot, whether about the German language or life in general. We'll support you in finding your way around your new surroundings and gaining new experiences. You're free to decide how much time you want to spend with others or enjoy your personal space – entirely according to your needs and preferences. Your well-being is important to us. During the first few days of settling in, we'll discuss with you when you need your free time and how we can ensure a harmonious coexistence that meets all your needs.

You'll have your own room in the attic with air conditioning for the summer. We offer full board as well as health, liability, and accident insurance. An additional bicycle is available for your use. If you have a driver's license, you can also use the car. If you'd like to become a gym member, we'll cover the costs. You'll also receive a Germany-wide bus and train ticket, which allows you to travel freely within Germany.

Your benefits with us:

✅ Your own room in the attic with air conditioning for the summer
✅ Full board (24 hours)
✅ Health, liability, and accident insurance
✅ An additional bicycle for you
✅ Use of the car if you have a driver's license
✅ Gym membership (if required)
✅ Germany-wide public transport ticket (bus, train)

Most importantly: We offer you a warm home with clear expectations, space for your needs, and honest, respectful interaction.

You may be wondering whether you'll truly feel comfortable in a new country and be warmly welcomed – we want to take that worry away. With us, you can arrive as you are, take your time to settle in, and gradually become part of our family life.

Important for au pairs from non-EU countries:
A Goethe Certificate German A1 is required for the visa application.

We very much look forward to getting to know you.
