Finding your ideal au pair has just become easier. Lingoo provides detailed online profiles of all our au pairs and allows you to make contact with your favourites through our secure online messaging system. So when you host an au pair, you won’t be inviting a stranger into your home. You will know their personal details, their hobbies, and be able to get to know them before you make a booking.
Unlike a language school or agency, hosting an au pair for your language support is free. You simply provide accommodation, meals, and a friendly welcome. Some countries require hosts to provide a small salary. Usually, this is at your discretion.
Lingoo’s au pairs are known as ‘Language Au Pairs’. Their main purpose is to coach you in speaking their native language. Improving your speaking skills in a foreign language takes practice. One of the best ways to practice is to live with a native speaker. As a way to learn a language, hosting an au pair is both intensive and flexible.
It’s intensive as you spend all day with the Language Au Pair, practising in your home or on day trips. You can even combine it with a language course to accelerate your learning. It’s flexible as you decide how much time you devote to practicing the language. So you can fit it into your daily routine.
Hosting a Language Au Pair is an ideal option for anyone preparing for language exams, planning to move abroad, or with a passion for languages. Learning this way becomes not only much faster but also more enjoyable. In fact, families that receive a Language Au Pair find that they and their children not only improve their conversation skills but also their speaking confidence in the target language.

Language Au Pairs are aged 18-30 with no dependents. They do not undertake domestic duties but help you improve your language skills.
As with all Lingoo members, Language Au Pairs go through a stringent validation process. Their identity and qualifications are checked personally by the Lingoo validation team before they can register with us. Together with contracts for each reservation, our secure messaging system and support from the Lingoo team should a misunderstanding occur, we ensure that your hosting is safe, secure and offers great value for money.
In short, hosting a Language Au Pair in your home represents the most effective way to brush up your existing speaking skills, gain authentic new skills, or improve language proficiency quickly without the need to travel.
Plan an unforgettable gap year or career break travelling the world, staying in the homes of local people while you teach them conversation skills in your own language. As a language Au Pair, you don’t need a formal teaching qualification.
All you need is to be aged between 18 and 30, unmarried, without dependants, and possess an interest in people and a desire to help them improve their conversation skills. It’s a unique way to travel, get inside a culture, make new friends, and create memories that will last a lifetime. Read more.
There is nothing like learning a language with a native speaker. When you host a language Au Pair in your own home, your family can practice speaking the language all day. In return for meals and accommodation, the language Au Pair will not charge lesson fees. And because it’s in your own home, you can choose how much time to devote to studying and practice.
