			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Nel mondo moderno di oggi Au Pairs stanno diventando sempre più popolare. Ci sono cento e uno motivi per assumere un au pair e portarli nella vostra casa, ma questo articolo vi racconterà i cinque che sono i più convincenti e utili a pensare a nessuno l&#8217;assunzione di un au pair.</p>
<p>CONVENIENTE PUERICULTURA Au coppie sono molto più accessibili di quanto la gente crede in generale. I costi attuali di avere una ragazza alla pari in casa sono incredibilmente bassi, soprattutto considerando i benefici che si trarranno da questa esperienza. Sono molto più di un semplice baby-sitter, ma il risparmio all&#8217;educazione dei figli da solo costa più di giustificare la decisione.</p>
<p>Conoscere culture diverse coppie di Au sono in questo paese spesso per molteplici ragioni. Uno dei la più diffusa delle quali è la possibilità di migliorare le proprie competenze linguistiche. Mentre la loro interazione con una famiglia irlandese o britannica li aiuta a migliorare il loro inglese ma anche contribuire ad educare i membri della famiglia, giovani e anziani nella cultura e nella lingua della loro casa: in genere la creazione di un ambiente reciprocamente vantaggioso e stimolante di apprendimento. Soprattutto l&#8217;esperienza non è solo educativo per tutti, ma anche divertente!</p>
<p>Programma di pianificazione Con l&#8217;aiuto di una coppia au voi come una madre o un padre sarà in grado di pianificare le vostre settimane con una precisione molto di più, flessibilità e libertà, come au pair in generale, previo accordo con se stessi fanno di lui o lei a disposizione per il ritiro i bambini da scuola, li porta a dopo le attività scolastiche e molte altre attività come vedete la misura che consente maggiore libertà di pianificare in tempo per voi stessi. Non solo un &#8216;au pair arricchire la vita familiare, ma permette anche di voi e la vostra altra metà per sfuggire alla casa una notte o due a settimana per un certo tempo di qualità, con la certezza che i piccoli sono al sicuro e felice.</p>
<p>AIUTO con i lavori domestici Questa non è una regola scritta, ma più si offrono fuori ad un au pair più si ottiene in cambio. In cambio dei loro coppie settimanali tassa au sono generalmente dovrebbero dare una mano con le faccende domestiche. Non deve essere scambiato per un servitore au coppie saranno d&#8217;aiuto con le faccende domestiche (ma, ovviamente, non fare tutto in proprio). Esecuzione di round dopo i bambini e la gestione di tutte le faccende domestiche può essere un lavoro faticoso in modo da avere anche un po &#8216;di aiuto in questo settore potrebbe essere un grande risparmio di tempo. L&#8217;au pair può servire come quello &#8216;altro paio di mani dei genitori sono spesso impegnati in gran parte del bisogno, specialmente in quei momenti particolarmente stressanti!</p>
<p>IN CURA casa quando i figli vengono inviati a un bambino minder registrato potrai sono generalmente alla loro mercé quanto riguarda l&#8217;ubicazione e le modalità di intrattenimento, l&#8217;interazione e la disciplina, in quanto tale, limitando il controllo sulle modalità con cui il bambino viene curato. Con l&#8217;assunzione di un au pair si può essere sicuri nella consapevolezza che i vostri bambini vengono accuditi in un ambiente familiare (la casa familiare) e avere un maggiore controllo delle attività che si impegnano durante il giorno. E &#8216;più come avere i bambini accuditi da un membro onorario della famiglia, che assumerà regole della casa a bordo per l&#8217;infanzia e preferenze personali. Oltre a questi benefici e gli altri numerosi ricevuti invitando una ragazza alla pari in casa, si sta anche facendo una grande differenza per la vostra au pair. In cambio per l&#8217;assistenza e la vostra famiglia in ogni genere di faccende quotidiane, attività ed eventi, che stanno imparando una nuova lingua, la cultura e lo stile di vita &#8230; che poi è il motivo per cui hanno lasciato il loro paese d&#8217;origine per diventare un au pair. In breve, a vantaggio di tutti!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dans modernes d&#8217;aujourd&#8217;hui Pairs du monde sont de plus en plus populaire. Il ya mille et une raisons d&#8217;embaucher une fille au pair et les mettre dans votre maison, mais cet article va vous raconter les cinq qui sont les plus convaincants et bénéfique à la pensée à personne de l&#8217;embauche d&#8217;un jeune fille au pair.</p>
<p>ABORDABLES DE LA PETITE ENFANCE au pair sont beaucoup plus abordables que les gens croient généralement. Les coûts permanents d&#8217;avoir une fille au pair dans votre maison sont incroyablement bas, compte tenu notamment des avantages que vous gagnerez de l&#8217;expérience. Ils sont beaucoup plus une baby-sitter simple, mais les économies en services de garde coûte à lui seul plus de justifier la décision.</p>
<p>Découvrir des cultures différentes au pair sont dans ce pays pour des raisons multiples, souvent. L&#8217;un des plus répandus de ce qui est l&#8217;occasion d&#8217;améliorer leurs compétences linguistiques. Alors que leur interaction avec une famille irlandaise ou britannique contribue à améliorer leur anglais, ils contribuent également à sensibiliser les membres de la famille, jeunes et vieux dans la culture et la langue de leur maison: en général de créer un environnement mutuellement bénéfique et stimulante d&#8217;apprentissage. Au-dessus de toute l&#8217;expérience n&#8217;est pas seulement l&#8217;éducation pour tous, mais aussi très amusant!</p>
<p>ANNEXE DE LA PLANIFICATION Avec l&#8217;aide d&#8217;une jeune fille au pair vous en tant que mère ou le père sera en mesure de planifier vos semaines avec une précision beaucoup plus, la flexibilité et la liberté, que votre fille au pair en général, après accord avec vous-même ou elle-même lui faire à la disposition de recueillir vos enfants de l&#8217;école, les emmener à des activités parascolaires et des activités beaucoup plus comme bon vous semble ce qui vous permet une plus grande liberté de planifier dans le temps pour vous-même. Non seulement une jeune fille au pair d&#8217;enrichir la vie de famille, mais permet également, vous et votre autre moitié pour échapper à la maison une nuit ou deux par semaine pendant un certain temps de qualité, sûrs dans la connaissance que les petits sont en sécurité et heureux.</p>
<p>Aider aux travaux ménagers Cette règle n&#8217;est pas écrite, mais plus vous offrir des à une jeune fille au pair, plus vous obtiendrez en retour. En contrepartie de leurs hebdomadaires au pair frais sont généralement appelés à aider aux tâches ménagères. Ne doit pas être confondu avec quelques paires de serviteur de l&#8217;UA contribuera avec les tâches ménagères (mais de toute évidence, pas tous sur leur propre). Courir autour des enfants et la gestion de toutes les tâches ménagères peut être une tâche fatigante afin d&#8217;avoir même un peu d&#8217;aide dans ce domaine pourrait être un gain de temps considérable. Une jeune fille au pair peut servir que «paire supplémentaire de mains des parents très occupés sont souvent en grand besoin d&#8217;, surtout pendant ces périodes particulièrement stressantes!</p>
<p>EN SOINS À DOMICILE Lorsque vos enfants sont envoyés à une assistante maternelle enregistré, vous sont généralement à leur merci en ce qui concerne l&#8217;emplacement et les méthodes de divertissement, l&#8217;interaction et la discipline, en tant que telle de limiter votre contrôle en ce qui concerne la façon dont votre enfant est pris en charge. Par l&#8217;embauche d&#8217;un jeune fille au pair, vous pouvez être sûr, en sachant que vos enfants sont pris en charge dans un environnement familier (votre maison familiale) et avoir un meilleur contrôle des activités qu&#8217;ils entreprennent au cours de la journée. Il ressemble plus à avoir des enfants pris en charge par un membre de la famille d&#8217;honneur, qui prendra le règlement intérieur du conseil d&#8217;administration et de garde d&#8217;enfants préférences personnelles. Outre ces avantages et les nombreux autres que vous recevez en invitant une fille au pair dans votre maison, vous êtes également faire une grande différence pour votre fille au pair. En retour pour aider vous et votre famille dans toutes sortes de tâches quotidiennes, des activités et des événements, ils apprennent une nouvelle langue, la culture et le mode de vie &#8230; qui est après tout la raison pour laquelle ils ont quitté leur pays d&#8217;origine pour devenir une fille au pair. En bref, tout le monde profite!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Das Känguru als Au-Pair-Team freuen uns, mitteilen, dass wir die Einführung eines neuen Video-Funktion, die es allen Au Pairs und Familien laden ein kleiner Clip im Profil hinterlegt werden. Unser Ziel ist die Hilfe bei der Suche ein Au Pair oder Familie für alle leichter, aber bevor wir das tun wir gerne alle Ihre Gedanken und Anregungen. Glaubst du, daß es helfen? Möchten Sie sehen, dieses Feature eingeführt? Möchten Sie einen Video als Teil Ihres Profils, wenn Sie die Möglichkeit dazu hatten? Senden Sie uns eine kurze Nachricht über unser Kontaktformular oder per Email unter info@kangarooaupair.com, würden wir uns freuen, Ihre Gedanken zu hören. Wir hoffen auch auf ein Aupair-Forum an Ort und Stelle in naher Zukunft zu helfen, unsere Mitglieder über ihre Gedanken und Ideen haben. Wir haben zahlreiche Familien in Irland und Großbritannien, die eine große Au-Pair finden wollen plauderten. Alle Familien einig, dass es wäre brillant, ein Au-pair-Video zu sehen, um einen Geschmack für das, was sie wirklich vor, den nächsten Schritt gefällt. Insbesondere Gastfamilien haben uns die folgenden Tipps für ein Au-pair-Video. Au Pair Video Guide:</p>
<p>Verwenden Sie das Video als Chance, zeigen Sie Ihre Persönlichkeit!<br />
Fügen Sie Ausschnitte aus der Interaktion mit Kindern<br />
Fügen Sie Clips von Ihnen selbst zu sein und tun Ihrem Lieblings vergangenen Zeiten<br />
Verwenden Sie nicht nur Bilder. Es ist in Ordnung, das Foto in einer Diashow gehören aber sicher sein, einen Clip von sich selbst sind, so dass die Familie eine Vorstellung davon, Ihre Sprachkenntnisse usw. bekommen können<br />
Lächeln. Erste Eindrücke länger dauern.<br />
Sophie (Au Pair) aus Spanien haben einen sehr schönen Gastfamilie in Irland. Sie schickte sie ein Video zu helfen, geben ihr die Kante. Hier ist, was sie zu sagen hatte: Die ersten Gespräch hatte ich mit meiner Familie, die sie erwähnt, dass sie wirklich mochte mein Video und dachte, es war eine großartige Idee zu helfen, Finde ein Au Pair. Ich war froh zu hören, sie mochte es. Ich denke es ist eine großartige Möglichkeit, meine Persönlichkeit zu zeigen und vorzuführen mein Englisch. Ich denke es ist ein toller Ausgangspunkt für Familien. Wir hatten Gespräche am Telefon und per Skype, sobald sie mein Video sah. Es erleichtert die Entscheidung für sie. Aupair-Foren auf Aupair-Agenturen haben große Artikel über Videos. Mein Rat für Au-pairs suchen, um ein Video zu machen ist es einfach zu halten und machen es nicht zu lang oder die Familie langweilig wird.</p>
<p>Kangaroo Au Pair hoffen, diese Funktion an Ort und Stelle im Frühjahr 2012 zu haben. Wenn Sie irgendwelche Kommentare informieren Sie uns bitte über unser Kontaktformular hier oder mailen Sie an info@kangarooaupair.com</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello Kangaroos! <img src='http://blog.kangarooaupair.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I am sending you my succes story.</p>
<div><em>As my first full year of being an au-pair in Ireland was coming to an end, I knew that I don&#8217;t want to go home yet. That&#8217;s why I started looking for a new family for the next and final year. I spent hours on the internet until I finally found a family in Dublin. We really &#8220;clicked&#8221; in the emails. The only problem was that I had to leave my current hostfamily in June, because they had another girl coming. This Dublin family needed someone to start in September. That meant that I have to find somewhere to stay for the three months. I was lucky and found a family with four boys in Kilkenny, they needed an aupair just for the summer time and were fine with the fact that I will leave in September. Summer in Kilkenny was wonderful and if you ever come to Ireland, the Kilkenny castle is a must-see for you. Nothing but one thing could ruin my summer -the Dublin family sent me an email saying that their aupair decided to stay longer so they won&#8217;t need me.</em></div>
<div><em><br />
</em></div>
<div><em>And there I was, back in the cold waters of the internet. I don&#8217;t know how, I don&#8217;t know where it came from, but all of the sudden I saw a little kangaroo smiling at me from my computer screen. I didn&#8217;t know this website, but I decided to give it a try. And it was a good decision I must say. It didn&#8217;t last long until I found a message from Bettina. They had one baby to look after and lived in Cork city. I replied to her message and not so long after that we met in person. And because we both had a good feeling about each other, by the end of October I was already moving to Cork.</em></div>
<div><em><br />
</em></div>
<div><em>I was really nicely surprised that they came all the way to Kilkenny to collect me so I didn&#8217;t have to carry all my bags on the bus. I got a lovely room and my very own bathroom.</em></div>
<div><em><br />
</em></div>
<div><em>It&#8217;s been four months since I started in this family and I can&#8217;t complain at all. I met lots of new people and made some really great friends. I even found a boyfriend here! Me and my hostparents became really good friends and baby Aileen is like my little sister. We have loads of fun together. We often go to the ZOO or just down to the shopping centre for a smoothie. I wouldn&#8217;t change my hostfamily for the world.</em></div>
<div><em><br />
</em></div>
<div><em>If you are considering becoming an aupair, don&#8217;t hesitate. It&#8217;s a great experience that you&#8217;ll remember forever. You&#8217;ll meet new people from all around the world (Ireland is full of aupairs!) and you will see new places and learn the language as a bonus. Don&#8217;t be afraid and don&#8217;t wait for tomorrow. I am sure that the perfect hostfamily is waiting for you right here. Good luck!</em></div>
<div><em><br />
</em></div>
<div><em>Czech aupair Anna, 23</em></div>
<div><em><br />
</em></div>
<div>Thanks a lot for being on the internet, without you I wouldn&#8217;t find this family and I wouldn&#8217;t start my life over <img src='http://blog.kangarooaupair.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Kangaroo Au Pair team are happy to announce that we will be introducing a new video feature which will allow all au pairs and families upload a small clip to their profile. Our aim is to help finding an au pair or family easier for everybody but before we do so we’d like to hear all your thoughts and suggestions. Do you think it’ll help? Would you like to see this feature introduced? Would you include a video as part of your profile if you had the chance? Send us a quick message using our contact form or email us at <a href="mailto:info@kangarooaupair.com">info@kangarooaupair.com</a>, we’d love to hear your thoughts. We also hope to have an <em><span style="text-decoration: underline;">aupair forum</span></em> in place in the near future to help our members discuss their thoughts and ideas.  We’ve chatted to numerous families in Ireland and the UK who want to find a <em><span style="text-decoration: underline;">great au pair</span></em>. All families agreed that it would be brilliant to see an au pair video to get a flavour for what they are really like before taking the next step. In particular host families have given us the following tips for an au pair video.  Au Pair Video Guide:</p>
<ol>
<li>Use the video as opportunity to show off your personality!</li>
<li>Include snippets of you interacting with children</li>
<li>Include clips of you being yourself and doing your favourite past times</li>
<li>Don’t use pictures only. It’s ok to include photo’s in a slideshow but be sure to include a clip of yourself so the family can get an idea of your language skills etc.</li>
<li>Smile. First impressions last longer.</li>
</ol>
<p>Sophie (Au Pair) from Spain found a lovely host family in Ireland. She sent them a video to help give her the edge. Here’s what she had to say:  <em>The initial conversation I had with my family they mentioned that they really liked my video and thought it was a great idea to help find an au pair. I was happy to hear they liked it. I think it’s a great way to show my personality and show off my English. I think it’s a great starting point for families. We had conversations on the phone and on skype once they saw my video. It makes the decision easier for them. Aupair forums on aupair agencies have big articles about videos. My advice for au pairs looking to make a video is to keep it simple and don’t make it too long or the family will get bored.</em></p>
<p><em> </em> <em> </em> Kangaroo Au Pair hope to have this feature in place in early 2012. If you have any comments please let us know through our contact form here or email us at info@kangarooaupair.com</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In today’s modern world Au Pairs are becoming more and more popular. There are a hundred and one reasons to hire an au pair and bring them into your home but this article will tell you about the five that are the most compelling and beneficial to anybody thinking about hiring an au pair.</p>
<p>AFFORDABLE CHILDCARE Au pairs are a lot more affordable than people generally believe. The ongoing costs of having an au pair in your home are incredibly low, especially considering the benefits you will gain from the experience. They are much more than a mere babysitter, but the savings in childcare costs alone more than justify the decision.</p>
<p>EXPERIENCE DIFFERENT CULTURES Au pairs are in this country for often manifold reasons. One of the most prevalent of which is the opportunity to improve their language skills. Whilst their interaction with an Irish or British family helps them to improve their English they also help to educate family members, young and old in the culture and language of their home: generally creating a mutually beneficial and exciting environment of learning. Above all the experience is not only educational for all but also fun!</p>
<p>SCHEDULE PLANNING With the help of an au pair you as a mother or father will be able to plan your weeks with much more accuracy, flexibility and freedom, as your au pair will generally, upon agreement with yourself make him or herself available to collect your children from school, take them to after school activities and many more activities as you see fit allowing you greater freedom to plan in time for yourself. Not only does an au pair enrich family life, but also allows you and your other half to escape the house a night or two a week for some quality time, safe in the knowledge that the little ones are safe and happy.</p>
<p>HELP WITH THE HOUSEWORK This isn’t a written rule but the more you offer out to an au pair the more you will get in return. In return for their weekly fee au pairs are generally expected to help out with household chores. Not to be mistaken for a servant au pairs will help out with household chores (but obviously, not do all of them on their own). Running round after children and managing all of the household duties can be a tiring job so having even a little bit of help in this area could be a great time saver. An au pair can serve as that &#8216;extra pair of hands&#8217; busy parents are often in much need of, especially during those particularly stressful times!</p>
<p>IN HOME CARE When your children are sent to a registered child minder you are generally at their mercy with regard to location and methods of entertainment, interaction and discipline, as such limiting your control with regard to how your child is looked after. By hiring an au pair you can be safe in the knowledge that your children are being looked after in a familiar environment (your family home) and have greater control of the activities they undertake during the day. It is more like having the children looked after by an honorary family member, who will take on board house rules and personal childcare preferences. Besides these benefits and the numerous others you receive by inviting an au pair into your home, you are also making a great difference to your au pair. In return for assisting yourself and your family in all manner of daily chores, activities and events, they are learning a new language, culture and way of life&#8230;which is after all the reason they have left their home country to become an au pair.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After graduating with a smile on your lips, your eyes affected, tinged with nostalgia, thinking of the years that have passed with an astounding speed, you are already thinking about your summer vacation, which you deserve.</p>
<p>However, upon your return, you will embark on the quest for the perfect job. Proud, happy and confident, even overconfident, you&#8217;re about &#8211; unknowingly &#8211; to experience the same ritual day after day, month after month, between reading job advertisements in newspapers or websites and applying.</p>
<p>Those who get the job will be those who perfectly master a foreign language. Isn’t it the case for you? So, prepare to experience painful moments.</p>
<p>However, there’s a solution.</p>
<p>In order to avoid all these hassles and unnecessary turmoil, you can now take your future into your own hands! Take advantage of your summer break to do language study abroad. In two weeks, you will gain in self-confidence. After three weeks, you will be perfectly able to have informal conversations and beyond one month, you will surprise yourself by being able to think in a foreign language.</p>
<p>Spend a trimester abroad for the improvement of language and on your return, you will be qualified for all jobs which require a bilingual candidate.</p>
<p>Finally, if this is additional motivation, note that a study conducted by the journalist Philip Beresford, with the collaboration of 270 dating services, claims that mastering a foreign language would make a person appear more sexy and smart.</p>
<p>ESL – Language studies abroad is a Swiss agency specialised in the organisation of language studies abroad for children, students, adults, seniors and professionals. The programmes it proposes are language courses in a foreign country, most often completed by cultural or sports activities, sometimes even by a paid job or volunteer work. It only works with renowned schools which it selects with care.</p>
<p>Control your future! Book now !</p>
