How to Intern Abroad as an Au Pair

Prepare for Au Pair Internships Abroad

Understand the benefits

Becoming an au pair intern abroad opens the door to a one-of-a-kind cultural experience. It’s an opportunity to learn, grow, and connect in ways that can shape your future forever.

  • Cultural immersion. Live like a local and become part of a family while exploring new traditions, languages, and ways of life. It’s an experience that goes far beyond tourism.
  • Language learning. Strengthen your communication skills and pick up a new language naturally through daily interactions with your host family and children.
  • Career experience. Show future employers your ability to adapt, multitask, and thrive in international environments — all while developing patience and problem-solving skills.
  • Financial benefits. Most au pair placements include housing and meals, giving you a low-cost way to live abroad while earning valuable childcare experience.

Things to know

Before starting your au pair internship abroad, there are a few key things to keep in mind to make your experience smooth and rewarding.

  • Set expectations early. Discuss responsibilities, work hours, and household rules upfront with your host family to ensure everyone’s on the same page.
  • Stay communicative. Open, honest communication helps avoid misunderstandings — check in regularly with your host parents and ask questions when needed.
  • Cultural adjustment. It’s normal to feel homesick or experience culture shock. Stay positive, give yourself time, and lean on your host family for support.
  • Time management. Balancing work, personal time, and travel opportunities is key. Use weekends and holidays to explore and recharge.

Amazing time in New Zealand!

Program: New Zealand Internships

I used Internex in 2024 as I wanted to live abroad while also gaining practical work experience. Internex provided the perfect opportunity to move to New Zealand while undertaking an internship. From my first meetings with Chris, he was extremely helpful and made the daunting decision to move abroad feel much easier and manageable. I started my internship in August 2024 with a social work organisation working with women and children. I felt fully supported by the team and began shadowing their work right away. After a couple of months, I was very excited to be given the opportunity of a job with the organisation. This meant extending my time in New Zealand, which I was very grateful for. My job involved conducting home visits with families across Auckland who needed emotional and practical support. I felt privileged to be working alongside great social workers, and I gained experience from observing their practice. This experience I was able to gain, helped me find employment in the area I was interested in when I came home in May 2025. I was also assigned a wonderful homestay by Internex. My homestay made me feel so welcome and contributed to making my time in New Zealand so great. I am grateful to Internex for providing this homestay as having a safe place to stay was very important to me. Overall, I had an amazing time living and working in New Zealand and I am so thankful for the team at Internex for making it possible! I would recommend using their services to find interesting internships that can lead to exciting opportunities, all while feeling fully supported to experience the wonderful country of New Zealand.
