Welcome to our family – we’re excited to meet you!

Hi there! We’re a warm and lively family with 2 young children between the ages of 3 and 7. We live in a beautiful village in central Switzerland – right by Lake Lucerne – surrounded by nature, mountains, and fresh air.

Our daily life is colorful, sometimes a bit chaotic, but always full of love, mutual respect, and humor. We’re looking for an Au Pair from the USA, Canada or New Zealand, English native Speakers, who would like to become part of our family and support us with heart and responsibility.

What’s important to us:

You love children and ideally have some experience in early childhood education or childcare (e.g., through studies, internships, babysitting, volunteering).

You are patient, empathetic, and have a strong sense of responsibility.

You’re open-minded, reliable, and enjoy getting actively involved in family life – whether it’s playing, crafting, helping with homework, or cooking together.

One of our children has special needs. It’s important to us that you are open and compassionate, and willing to embrace each child for who they are. You won’t be left alone with this – we approach everything as a team.

What you can expect from us:

A welcoming home in a loving family

Time and space to explore Switzerland and make your own experiences

Respectful communication and honest, close collaboration

A structured daily routine with clear tasks – but also lots of laughter and shared memories

If you love supporting children in their growth, enjoy taking on responsibility, and are looking for a warm family atmosphere – we’d be so happy to hear from you!

Warm regards,
Silke & Family
