Beyond the benefit of reliable, flexible childcare, hosting an au pair offers a unique opportunity to immerse your family in a new culture, language, and way of life. One of the most exciting aspects of the program is that you can select where your au pair is from, making it easy to introduce your children to a new language, like Spanish—one of the most widely spoken languages in the U.S.. This is a valuable skill that can enhance future opportunities, both personally and professionally.

Plus, hosting an au pair from Spain or a Spanish-speaking country isn’t just about language. Spanish au pairs bring pride in their culture as well. They're eager to share everything from songs and traditions to sports and food.

Here’s how you can find a Spanish-speaking au pair and what to expect from the experience.

What are Spanish-speaking au pairs like?

Spanish and Latin cultures are known for their vibrant, passionate energy, and these traits often shine through during the au pair experience. They’re friendly, energetic, and loads of fun. The language immersion experience alone is a huge plus, but these au pairs also bring an enthusiastic, generous spirit that can add a new dynamic to your home.

Cultural pride and family involvement

Spanish-speaking au pairs love sharing their traditions and getting the entire family involved in cultural activities, whether it’s cooking favorite dishes, crafting piñatas, or introducing your children to their favorite songs and games.

Empathy and care

Au pairs from Spanish-speaking countries are natural caregivers. They're empathetic and eager to help parents in any way they can.

Don’t forget one of the most exciting cornerstones of Spanish and Latin cultures—sports! Specifically, fútbol (soccer)! Cheering for the same team can be a bonding experience for entire families, and a fun way to channel the children’s energy on weekends and weeknights.
