The China Au Pair program will place you with a Chinese family interested in giving their children not only a cultural education but direct experience of the English language. You will have the opportunity to look at family profiles pre-departure to help decide on your placement. There are three different time periods you can sign up for with this program; three months, six months, and twelve months.
Work as a paid Au Pair: Families looking to hire an Au Pair want to expose their children to the English language as well as widen their cultural education. You will work with Smaller Earth prior to departure to ensure that you are matched with a suitable family. There are three different time periods you can work in China: three months, six months and twelve months.
What does an Au Pair do?: One of the great things about being an Au Pair is the variety it offers. Each host family is unique and has their own schedules, traditions and hobbies - no Au Pair experience would be exactly the same. Smaller Earth will strive to match you with your host family based on shared interests so you are fully prepared before you arrive at the family home.
You will work as an Au Pair for 25 hours per week with responsibilities such as playing with children, taking them to and from school and preparing snacks for them. The main purpose of the position is to develop the children's English language skills through interaction.
Learn Mandarin Chinese: As part of the Au Pair in China program, you will receive eight to twelve hours free Mandarin Chinese classes per week. Having the ability to speak the world's most widely spoken language will certainly enhance your CV for future employers and will give you an competitive edge. With additional support of a small classroom size and great teachers, your Chinese will improve at a fast rate!
Does an Au Pair have a social life?: Wherever your are located we will create social opportunities so you can meet other Au Pairs. Your assigned coordinator will ensure that you make friends with others in your area, so you always have group to hang out in the local coffee shop! There will also be organised trips to see the local sites and explore the wonders China has to offer.
