What Host Families Can Expect From Their Au Pair

What Host Families Can Expect From Their Au Pair

Thinking about welcoming an au pair? Here’s what the experience really looks like — both in daily life and through the cultural exchange that makes it so special.

👩‍👧‍👦 Duties You Can Expect

Your au pair will support your family with a range of child-focused tasks, such as:

✨ Helping with morning and bedtime routines

✨ School or daycare drop-off & pick-up

✨ Playing, supervising, and engaging with your kids

✨ Preparing simple meals and snacks

✨ Light household duties related to the children (tidying toys, kids’ laundry, lunchboxes, etc.)

An au pair is not a cleaner or housekeeper — they’re here to support, not to replace professional services. Their role is to make family life smoother and more enjoyable for everyone.

🌍 The Cultural Exchange

Hosting an au pair means welcoming a new culture into your home. You’ll enjoy:

💬 Language exposure and new perspectives

🍽️ Shared traditions, foods, and stories

🎉 Celebrating holidays together in fun, meaningful ways

🤝 A sense of connection that often lasts long after the au pair’s stay

It’s more than childcare — it’s building a relationship that can shape your family for years to come.
