Family's Message to Au Pairs

Hi there! Would you like to experience Finland? Close your eyes and think of sunshine shimmering on the water of a beautiful harbour. Or think of the glassy calm of a lake, disturbed only by the occasional ripple from a rising fish. In Finland, you’re never far from the water, there are 188,000 lakes in this beautiful country of ours.... Sounds good? Did you get interested already? Well, we are an active Finnish family, looking for a reliable aupair to look after our house and our two sons who love sports, especially soccer (their goal is to play in Real Madrid one day...). We live in central Finland - and surpise surprise: by a beautiful lake. The Ylä-Savo area is great for outdoor activities; skiing and skating in the winter, jogging, swimming, hiking etc. in the summer. Are you the perfect match for us...? If you got interested, please contact us by email, we'd be happy to answer all your questions, and maybe send you some more pictures of us!
