Be an Au Pair in Spain: An Unforgettable Experience!

We can unfortunately no longer accept further applications at the moment. You can find a list of Au Pair agencies in Spain at www.agenciasaupairaepa.es who will be happy to help you.

Incredible food, spectacular architecture, beautiful beaches, friendly people… discover all of this and more as an Au Pair in Spain. The Au Pair program in Spain is a great opportunity to explore the country and improve your Spanish while caring for the children of a Spanish family. Spain is rich with cultural diversity and history, and due to this there are endless possibilities of activities to do and places to see. If you enjoy kids and have an interest in travelling, there is no doubt that you will have an unforgettable experience in this magnificent country.

 

What would you do as an Au Pair in Spain?

 

You will live with a welcoming family and you will help care for the children, speaking in either your native language or English. It is fundamental that you like children and that you do not mind spending many hours playing with children. As an Au Pair, you will complete small chores for the house as if you were a member of the household. You will have free time every day to attend a language school to understand Spanish, participate in sports, or do whatever you feel like doing. You will have many opportunities to improve your Spanish in your everyday life. In return, you would receive your own room, full board, and weekly pocket money.

 

What are the requirements and the options for the duration of stay?

 

The requirements are not overwhelming. At the basic level, you need to be between the age of 18 and 30 years old and enjoy children. If you are from the EU, you can stay in Spain for up to two years. If you are not from the EU, you can stay for up to 90 days of the year with a passport or 91 days with a student visa.

We accept applications throughout the year. The most demand corresponds with the academic year (September to June). Another common time to begin is January or February. The summer program (June to September) is popular as well; the requirement for this program is 8 at least weeks. Sometimes it is not possible to attend Spanish classes during the summer because many families move to their residences by the coast.

What are the advantages of finding a family through this agency instead of using other independent platforms?

 

We find friendly families and assure that they comply with the norms established with the International Au Pair program (hours of work, pocket money, housing accommodations, etc.).

 

  • The agencies facilitate the family selection process: we offer you complete profiles through email, allow you to select families you would like to interview without compromise, and finally give you time to get to know the family through Skype and email before you make a decision.
  • If there is a problem with the family during your time as an Au Pair, we help you with advice. If the situation does not improve, we always help you find another family.
  • We put you in a zone where you have contact with other Au Pairs so that it is easier to make friends and meet new people.
  • We help you and inform you about Spanish classes, general information about the city you will live in, medical insurance, etc.
  • You can always contact the agency by visiting the office at its headquarters or through Skype.
  • You will not have any type of costs; it is the families that will pay for your services.
  • You will communicate in English, German or Spanish, whichever will facilitate the process better.
