Testimonials

Every journey is different, but the stories share the same warmth. Discover how our host families and au pairs experience this cultural journey together, and get a real feel for what makes our community so special. 

"The support from Nadine and Elisabeth and the whole APO team is amazing anytime I had a question or was just curious about something they were right there."

I’ve had an exceptional time in Belgium. It was unlike an adventure I have been on before even as an Au Pair who has been to multiple countries. The support from Nadine and Elisabeth and the whole APO team is amazing anytime I had a question or was just curious about something they were right there. The au pair events they organize every year and the coffee calls are just some of the ways they connect and support the au pairs and I would recommend APO to any au pair or host family in Belgium so they may have an exceptional time like i did. Thank you for all the love and support.

Have a lovely day!

"Your help has been invaluable, and I truly appreciate everything you have done to make this journey smoother for me."

Hi Nadine,

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for all the support and assistance you have provided. Your help has been invaluable, and I truly appreciate everything you have done to make this journey smoother for me. Thank you for your advice during the coffee sessions. I would also like to use this email as an opportunity to thank you and Nathaly, for the extra mile you walk with us as au pairs. This truly has been one heck of a journey for me, this was probably my last coffee with the Au Pair Office, but what I do want to let you know is that you, with the work you do, you touch so many lives, lives that are changed forever and that is not something we say a lot about other people. I hope you remember that on the days we (the au pairs) give you headaches, that it is all worth it. Though I was only a small part of your story, Au Pair Office had a big impact on the rest of my story. I wish you all the best and much more success in the future. I will be going back to South Africa as a changed person, hoping to do some good there and also hoping I left behind some good in Belgium.

Thank you again, truly.
Kind regards,
Madri

"Merci infiniment pour votre bienveillance et votre accompagnement durant cette année au pair. Ce fut une année enrichissante, au-delà de l'aspect culturel, ..."

Chère equipe de l'APO,

Cela fait exactement 1an jour pour jour aujourd'hui que j'ai commencé l'expérience. Merci infiniment pour votre bienveillance et votre accompagnement durant cette année au pair. Ce fut une année enrichissante, au-delà de l'aspect culturel, cela m'a permis de nouer un lien très fort avec ma famille d'accueil. Déménager et changer complètement d'environnement n'a pas été facile mais cela m'a aussi aidera grandir!

Merci pour l'existence de cette agence, de m'avoir permis d'être en contact avec la plus merveilleuse des familles. Je vous souhaite le meilleur.

"The Au Pair Office's quiet presence in the background made it possible for me to feel so free and independent, to develop so effectively, and ultimately to truly enjoy my year!"

Many, many thanks for the support of the Au-Pair Office! I felt so comfortable with my family that, thankfully, I didn't need much support.

But knowing that I always had a contact person, a fixed contract, a manager who told me how best to settle in, was really helpful!!

The Au Pair Office's quiet presence in the background made it possible for me to feel so free and independent, to develop so effectively, and ultimately to truly enjoy my year! Thank you Elisabeth and Nadine!

"To everyone wondering if having an aupair in your home isn't too much of a breach of your personal space... "

To everyone wondering if having an aupair in your home isn't too much of a breach of your personal space... To me the stress of having to do groceries, be home in time after school, drop-offs at hobbies, cooking, dishes and the list continues would be much of a breach of my entrepreneur space. Grateful for every moment shared!

"I’m honestly so impressed with your service! Thank you so much for your very thoughtful and comprehensive reflections on our au pair."

We really appreciate the time and care you put into the intake and screening conversation, and the balanced and nuanced way in which you shared your impressions with us. Your overview of her personality, motivation, and experience is extremely helpful and gives us a lot of confidence.

We especially value the attention you paid not only to her strengths and experience, but also to the interpersonal dynamics and points of attention, which we find very constructive and reassuring. It is also very helpful to know that she has been so open and transparent about her personal circumstances and expectations, and that she clearly understands where her primary commitment lies during her time with us. I’ve referred a friend to your agency now 🙂 Thank you once again!

Dear Elisabeth, Thank you very much for your kind and detailed feedback about me. I really appreciate the time you took to speak with me and to evaluate my profile.

    I just finished my au pair year and I was truly enjoying it thanks to the agency Au-Pair Office. It provided me with security and a sense of community. Fortunately, I had no problems arriving in Belgium and settling in with my family, but it was reassuring to always have a safe hand in the background to help me live my life.

    Super grateful to APO for matching me with the sweetest host family! 🩷 The support and communication throughout the whole process are definitely 5 stars! One little suggestion: an au pair + host family event could also be so much fun! It would be a lovely way for newly matched au pairs and host families to meet, break the ice, share experiences with other host families and au pairs

    Going through a rematch is one of the scariest things that can happen when you are far from home, but Au Pair Office truly looked out for me. The agency listened to my concerns without judgment and helped me find a new host family that is a potential perfect match for me. I am so grateful I chose an agency that actually protects and supports their au pairs

    As an au pair, having a reliable agency behind you makes all the difference, and Au Pair Office is absolutely amazing! Their team is professional, super approachable, and always quick to answer any questions. They guided me through the entire application process and helped me find a wonderful host family. Even after arriving as an aupair, they are always make sure that our rights as an aupair are protected.
