At the end of the course you will have a deeper understanding – in general – about the expectations of host parents/children and adjust to the British culture and lifestyle. On completion you will get certificates and diplomas valid for 3 years or longer.
The Orientation also offers Au Pairs an excellent opportunity to get information on language courses, speak with former au pairs and nannies on our pub evening.
Our au pair courses take place in central London and we will provide accommodation to the participants in a centrally located hostel which is tested, convenient and safe. If your host family is based in London you can choose to stay with them.
