Astonishing natural heritage of lakes and mountains, extraordinary train system, watches, non-interference policy, multi-language country, delicious cheese, and chocolate — Switzerland is famous for many things. When looking for a culturally enriching experience for your children, you should consider a Swiss au pair. Your children will enjoy hearing a new language from their live-in nanny while also learning about new things.
The wisdom of using live-in child care from Switzerland is that you benefit in many ways beyond simply finding a caregiver. Your entire family will learn more about the Swiss culture from in many ways:
- Your children can learn about Swiss traditions and experience them first-hand (such as making cheese topped meal every day!);
- Your children can be exposed to a new language as your au pair can read them stories in French, German or Italian as she usually speaks at least two languages of her country;
- Your family can ask questions and hear from a native how growing up and living in Switzerland really is.
When you use EurAupair to host an au pair from Switzerland, you can feel secure you’re getting the best possible match for your family’s needs. We have been connecting au pairs from Europe, South America, and Africa with American families for three decades, and we know how to find a fit that’s right for everyone.
Getting to Know Your Au Pair From Switzerland
The Swiss culture is a mix of Northern and Southern Europe. A live-in nanny from Switzerland may be more punctual than a Spanish au pair for example, but will be more flexible on schedule than say a German au pair. Typically, Swiss au pairs will be able to communicate any issues or concerns and will enjoy participating in the family life.
Swiss people have rather strong family values and will typically gather every evening as a family for dinner and meet for hours-long meals with near-by relatives on weekends and holidays. You can usually expect your Swiss au pair to enjoy cooking and to participate in your family dinners and get-togethers.
Swiss children will usually leave home at around 18 years old to pursue post-secondary studies in larger cities. They will get their own apartment and become independent at quite an early age.
Swiss au pairs will usually have experience in doing private baby-sitting.
The Swiss’s driver’s exam (written and practical) is very challenging. The driver’s license can only be obtained at 18 years old. Dozens of hours of actual driving experience is required to obtain a license. Public transportation is well developed in large cities but young adults outside of the main cities will most likely own a car and drive regularly. It is always recommended that you discuss your driving needs with your au pair.
Swiss students are required to learn two foreign languages (starting in middle school) and English must be one of the two.
Host a Swiss Au Pair
Educate your children about a different culture by finding a live-in Swiss nanny. Participate in an exchange experience that will enrich your family’s life by helping you learn more about Switzerland and the rest of the world.

I would love to become an au pair in the USA because it would be an extremely rewarding experience working with children and I would have the opportunity to learn more about different cultures in the USA.

I truly love children and taking care of their needs. I would say my strengths are that I am a very caring, calm, patient and understanding individual who loves to keep children entertained.

I want two things: to rediscover myself and to make a difference in children's lives as I have been doing for a while. I find it's the perfect match, out of so many programs, to combine two things that I believe will help me continue grow for the better each day. I want my host family and kids to look back and think 'that person has taught me something' and feel impacted by me. I want to feel impacted by people around the world, especially children. I am qualified for the empathy I possess, the ability to always keep learning, to aid and be aided if needed. I am resilient and hard-working and determined to never give and always be better. And I feel I can pass those values to those around me and learn from theirs. I also want to travel and explore more of the world's multicultural communities and collect as many memories and experiences as I can.

I would like to do this cultural program because it would be an enriching experience for my personal and professional life, as it would connect my two passions, working with children and traveling, which are the things that I currently consider important in my life. Otherwise, it would be a great to get to know another culture, learn from it and of course that the knowledge acquire would contribute to my relationship with raising children. On the other hand, I consider that the experience I have in children makes me qualified to be part of this program, it is for me a real passion to be in the company of children and to know their little inner worlds.

I communicate well with children and I love children very much. I can make them feel good by doing nice activities with them. Being patient, calm and organized in child care is one of my strengths. Not being an angry person and always being energetic brings the child closer to me. I enjoy being with them and communicating with them like a friend, not a child. It's fun to teach each other something. Therefore, what this program will teach me is gaining experience in English and in my personal career. I, too, can give children my love from my experiences and being with them, and make sure they spend time with love.

Mainly I want to be an Au Pair because I love children and I would like to be able to give them all the love, understanding and affection that I can offer them. I know that taking care of them can be a big responsibility but at the same time a great experience, since I will be able to grow as a person, learning every day about the unconditional love and affection that they can offer you. Since I was little I have dreamed of getting to know new cultures and learning new languages and that is why I think this is a great opportunity to fulfill my dreams and show the people what I love and my desire to know more about the USA and its beautiful places, I will be so happy to show you a little about my culture. Finally, I want to be a person who gives you inspiration, besides I would love to have a close friendship and nice communications with my future Host Family.

With the au pair year, I want to be able to master the language better, gain more experience with children, get to know the culture, become even more independent and experience a lot. I describe myself as qualified because I was able to gain a lot of experience with children in kindergarten and how to act in appropriate situations. Through the training, I was already able to apply theoretical things in practice. My strengths include teamwork, reliability, willingness to take responsibility, empathy and sociability.
