Become a Host Family

Do you know that feeling that you’re constantly having to do everything at the same time and that it’s difficult to find a good balance between work, children, sports and a social life, then an Au Pair could really be a good option! The right Au Pair can eliminate moments of stress and help you make your rush hour into quality time. She/he really is an extra ´You´ at a time when you need one.

Do realise that an Au Pair needs attention and guidance, as you would give to any member of your family. An Au Pair comes from a different background, has different cultural habits and speaks a different language and needs time to adapt to your family. It is, after all, a cultural exchange program.

You and your partner need to decide what is best for your family, but once you’ve decided, we are here to guide you further through the process.

What our families say...

“It is just as if she is always there. Everything goes so smoothly. She is truly interested in our children. Today she was off but she insisted on going to fetch our daughter from her first day at school.”

What our Au Pairs say....

“Embracing a new way of life has been extremely rewarding! Not only did I learn from a new country and culture, I also learned what my priorities are and how I handle challenges. Thank you HBN for the support along the way! To prospective au pairs I’d like to say, trust yourself and just go for it!
Groetjes!”
