Some families provide for six days of work. It all depends on your preferences and the complexity of the work. You will receive pocket money from your “parents” for completing simple household chores. On average, you can earn 400-450 euros per month.

Duties of the participants of the international exchange program Au pair Belgium:

Don't be intimidated by such a long list of future responsibilities. All these assignments do not require heavy physical strength and time-consuming. At first, difficulties may arise with observing the regime and adapting to the new schedule of life but after a couple of weeks you will be able to do several things and at the same time feel fun, cheerful and healthy. You will get so involved and get used to everything that you will not even notice how the Au pair Belgium program will fly by quickly and unnoticed.

Foreign language courses

Language courses in English, French or Dutch are one of the main bonuses that all participants in the international exchange program about Belgium receive. Most host families pay tuition fees. Thus, you will not only get the experience of live communication in a family with children but you will also be able to practice with native speakers of a foreign language in an easy playful way.

Among the most popular and frequently visited places in Brussels, it is worth highlighting:

Of course, this is not the whole list of what you can and should visit in the capital of Belgium. Each memorable place in Brussels does not need a description, since all this needs to be seen only with your own eyes. Having visited this wonderful city, you will be faced with the problem of lack of vocabulary to describe the impressions of your trip to Brussels.

In addition to the chic capital, Belgium can surprise its tourists with other equally beautiful cities. For example, Bruges at first glance can give the impression that you are in a small Belgian Venice. Ancient architecture, beautiful and cozy streets, luxurious bridges passing from one bank to another, and, of course, water channels are located so close that one gets the impression of one solid big river. All this is truly breathtaking from the first second of the journey.

If you love and appreciate the classics, art and old city monuments, then you will definitely like the small town of Liege. This is a beautiful, cozy and fascinating place. Temples, churches, historical monuments, luxurious architectural structures will not leave anyone indifferent. And the unique culture and customs will impress you so much that you will remember your great trip for a long time.

Also, towns such as Antwerp, Ghent, Mechelen, Leuven and the seaside resorts of Ostend and Middelkerk deserve your attention. In any case, wherever you go, there is certainly a lot to see in Belgium.
