Au Pair France – Explore Europe as an Au Pair

France is known for its sophistication and appreciation for the finer things in life and its range of famous landmarks. From the Eiffel Tower to the Louvre – you’ll never run out of things to do. Venture outside the capital, and things get even more interesting. Summer is for fine weather and lounging on France’s famous beaches. Experience the raw power of the Atlantic Ocean in Hossegor, or lounge at a luxurious beach club on the Mediterranean. The French Alps are most dramatic in winter with their towering peaks and charming mountain towns. Spring sees the countryside covered in cherry blossoms, signaling the spring harvest, complete with fresh wine from one of the many wineries. As an au pair in France, you too, can develop a palate for good food, fine wine, and its surrounding beauty. You will be a part of the family. Your host family takes care of your lodging and utilities, which means your salary is yours to spend as you please.

A Guide to Working Abroad in France

Best Cities for Expats

There are many places to find work in France, including away from the cities. Living in the rural areas of France and working in a small town or in the countryside can be a sublime experience for expats. France is a large and diverse country, so do your research carefully when determining what kind of environment you want to work and live in.

Paris is the obvious place to start when seeking jobs in France. The City of Love is an ideal place to find work in France, however long your stay and whatever your area of employment. Today Paris is one of the most globally connected cities on the planet and one of the most influential in terms of film, fashion, literature, and artistic excellence.

Marseilles, Lyon, and Toulouse, are other popular cities for jobs abroad in France that offer expats a more authentically French experience for working abroad in France, as they are not so iconically global. Lyon is known as the Capital of Lights because of the annual Fête des Lumières festival, Marseilles is France’s largest commercial port city sitting pristinely on the Mediterranean coast, and Toulouse is one of the primary French hubs of education.

Program: Become An Au Pair in France

9

I decided to become an Au Pair after completing my first semester of nursing school. I was at a time in my life where I did not know exactly what I wanted to do, while everyone around me seemed to know exactly what they were doing. I was in a rut and I needed to shake things up a bit. That's when I found out about GeoVisions Au Pair program. Although the most common (and preferred) Au Pair stay is around 6 months-1 year, I only stayed for 3 months. I left the US in September and returned in December, and let me tell you, I would not trade my experience in France for anything! I have always been pretty timid, so traveling to the south of France (Sommières to be exact) by myself was definitely a challenge that I am happy to say I overcame. As soon as I arrived in Sommières I was immediately greeted by my host family at the airport with open arms. After a few days of settling in, my host father showed me the ropes of what I was expected to do and even helped me learn how to drive a "stick shift" car. The workload (even though I really shouldn't even be calling it work) included waking up with the kids in the morning, making them breakfast and bringing them to school. When they were off at school I had the whole day to do whatever I wanted until I had to pick them up around 16:30. After school I played with them, helped them with homework, and sometimes made dinner and put them to bed. Then, I had the weekends to do whatever I wanted as well. The family was always very involved and I was always able to reach them. They were so kind and generous and they had a lovely home. They took the kids and I to Aix-en-Provence and Barcelona, Spain, and to a few other places during my stay. They always paid for food, they always paid for gas for the car, and they were just the best host family I could have ever asked for! I also made many new friends through the Au Pair program. During my first month, AFJ (the other organization I was working with) held a meeting with all the new Au Pair's in Nice for a weekend. There we got to explore the city and meet other Au Pair's near us. All the other Au Pair's were very kind and they were from all over the world. I have never experienced so much culture in my life it was truly outstanding. As for the south of France, I am itching to go back and I've only been home for 5 months! Sommières is a beautiful little village about 40 minutes away from Montpellier. The town center is charming and rustic and the surrounding villages are the same! I don't know what else I can possibly say about the trip, but it was an experience of a lifetime and I will definitely be returning in the future.
