Switzerland
One of the best Au Pair programmes if you like languages as it has three official languages: Italian, French and German. It is the best destination country for long stay Au Pair programmes.
Its location is ideal as it is surrounded by many countries, so given its size you have many options to travel around.
As an Au Pair in Switzerland you will have the opportunity to enjoy the Alps, primitive lakes, green villages and beautiful cities. Switzerland is known for having one of the highest standards of living in the world and a long life expectancy. The Swiss are generally very polite, hard-working, organised and orderly. It is rare for a Swiss pedestrian to cross the road if the traffic light is red.
For fans of cheese and chocolate, it will be the country where you will taste the widest selection of these products you could ever imagine.
