Family Description

It's just me and my son Daan (6) — I'm a GP with a demanding but fairly predictable schedule, and Daan is sociable, sporty, and always up for an adventure, as long as it involves a football at some point. I'm looking for a reliable au pair who can genuinely become part of our small family, someone Daan can look up to and who I can trust completely on the afternoons I'm at the practice late.

Our days are simple and routine-driven: school drop-off together in the morning, pick-up around 3pm, then homework, football practice, or just messing around in the garden until dinner. I try to keep evenings free for us as a family, so your evenings are usually your own. Groningen is a young, bike-friendly city, and I'd love an au pair who's happy to get around on two wheels and make the most of student-town life.

Family Unique Experience

Groningen is one of the youngest cities in Europe by population — a third of residents are students, which means a genuinely lively bar and café scene, cheap cinema nights, and a very welcoming international crowd. Everything is cyclable, the historic centre is beautiful, and Amsterdam is under two hours away by train if you want a bigger city fix.
