However, according to the German au pair visa regulations, you may also be asked by your host family to help them out with light household chores such as the above. While you will not have to do all of the above solely by yourself, you will be responsible for keeping your own and the children’s rooms neat. Also tidying up common rooms used by the whole family (i.e. kitchen, dining room) might be a task of yours. Please be sure to discuss your exact household duties with your host family during the interview. Bitte beachte: deine Hauptaufgabe liegt in der Betreuung der Kinder deiner Gastfamilie. Nichtdestotrotz und gemäß den deutschen Au pair Visumregeln, kann deine Gastfamilie dich auch darum bitten, sie bei leichten Haushaltstätigkeiten zu unterstützen.

Auch das Aufräumen der Zimmer, die von allen Familienmitgliedern genutzt werden (Küche, Esszimmer), könnte dazu zählen. Besprich daher bitte die konkret von dir erwarteten Haushaltstätigkeiten mit deiner Gastfamilie während des Interviews.

H. SHORT ESSAYS/ KURZE FRAGEN The biggest concerns for German host families are au pairs who: 1) behave like one of the children in the family, 2) constantly skype with friends & family during on-duty times, 3) are unable to see what needs to be done on their own, 4) only work with instructions, 5) fail to adjust to the daily lifestyle of the family, and 6) do not show any motivation or enthusiasm to be in Germany. Die größte Sorge einer Gastfamilie ist ein Au pair, das: sich wie ein weiteres Kind der Familie verhält/ ständig während der Arbeitszeit skypt/ nur nach Anweisung arbeitet/sich dem Alltag nicht anpasst/ keinerlei Motivation und Enthusiasmus zeigt.

What qualities do you need in order to adapt to the host family´s way of life? / Welche Qualitäten brauchst du, um dich an den Lebensstil deiner Gastfamilie anzupassen? _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________

• Why should a family pick you as their au pair? / Warum sollte eine Familie dich als ihr Au pair aussuchen? _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ • What do you think will be the most challenging part of being an au pair? / Was denkst du, wird der schwierigste Teil deines Au pair Jahres sein? _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ • If you experience homesickness in Germany, what method will you use to overcome this? / Wenn du in Deutschland Heimweh bekommst, wie wirst du es überwinden? _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________
