Working in a foreign country helped me grow up and learn Spanish at the same time. I think being an au pair is a great opportunity for young people who are getting ready to leave their parent's house and meet the real world. I am a smarter and stronger person now. This great experience helped me build my character and learn so much about others!!! Thank you very much!

Living with a host family as an Au Pair is a unique opportunity to gain a deep insight into the Spanish culture. You will become a new member of a Spanish speaking family, creating strong bonds and gaining lifetime experiences. As an Au Pair you will provide childcare assistance and light housework in exchange of full board accommodation and pocket money.

What’s included?

• Course detail (Booked)• Welcome package

• Intercultural workshop, including a welcome lunch/snack• Au Pair placement• Accommodation in Families & Homestay Full Board• Pocket money Euros 55/60 per week• Social & cultural activities • Program certificate• 24 hrs emergency phone number• Permanent mentor

I had a great time! I met a lot of Argentinian places, and I loved them all. The family I lived with was the best. They were all very nice and cared a lot about me. Sandra, the mom, used to cook my favorite meals all the time. Now that I’m back home, I’m thinking of going back some day. I really miss milanesas!
