AU PAIR
In Belgium

About Belgium

What is an Au Pair?
Ready to live your best European life in Belgium? Being an au pair is like stepping into your big sister era – part role model, part bestie, and 100% amazing! Think cuddles, crafts, and chocolate breaks with your host kiddos.
In exchange for childcare, you’ll get free room, board, monthly pocket money (yes, fries and waffles fund secured ), and contributions toward a language course – so you can flex those French or Dutch skills.
This isn’t just a job – it’s a cultural glow-up! You’ll be treated as part of the fam, not just an employee, and leave with unforgettable memories, epic stories, and maybe even a new favourite chocolate. Ready to make it happen?
