Dear Families,

in the past, it was often the case that several generations lived in one home. If the parents had to work, the grandparents looked after the little ones. Unfortunately, things are often different nowadays: Employees have to be more and more flexible in order to get ahead in their jobs, and currently often have to work from the home office – but that this also requires adaptable childcare is a real problem, especially for single parents.

A Granny Aupair can help families with childcare in a very flexible way. They not only babysit, but are integrated into the family as a temporary granny. The parents can relax and take care of their job while knowing that the little ones are in good hands: The Granny conjures up delicious food, helps with learning, plays, sings, does handicrafts and romps with the little ones, comforts and cheers them up, takes them for walks and much more. In short, as a woman with life experience who is hardly a stranger to children's problems – from teething pains in little ones to broken hearts in teenagers – she fills a big gap in many families, just as a real granny would do.

At the moment, around 70 Grannies from Germany, Luxembourg, Brazil, Austria, Switzerland, France and Italy, among others, are looking for a nice family to support with their life experience and verve. We are introducing you to three Grannies who would like to help a family in the near future or next year below. In addition to these, you can find many more Grannies in our online community. 

Best wishes

from your Michaela Hansen and your Granny Aupair-Team

Clarify in advance when the Granny will have time at her own disposal. Is she invited to take part in the family activities or would you like to have time for yourself as a family? Also preceding her arrival discuss exactly what tasks are expected of the Granny so that there will be no unpleasant surprises and misunderstandings when she has started with you.
