In contrast to the traditional one-year au pair programmes, which are based on a 40-hour working week, our “demi pair” concept limits the time spent working for the host family to 20-hours per week. The remaining time is used to attend a six to twelve-week language course, which will be rewarded with a certificate or an internationally recognized examination (TOEFL Cambridge Certificate).
The language schools are always located in interesting cities. Our demi pairs not only learn a language but also experience the culture and forge social contacts with other students.
Target countries*: Australia (Brisbane), China (Beijing), Ecuador (Quito), Ireland (Cork), Canada (Toronto), New Zealand (Wellington), Norway (Oslo)
Conditions: the participants must be between 18 and 30-years-old and able to demonstrate childcare experience.
Programme duration: the programme lasts between three to six months.
