3-stage Au Pair Placement
Firstly, we will be very happy to meet you at your home at any time convenient to you. It is a chance for us to meet your family, know your child/ren, have an understanding of your family structure, your routines, etc. Expectations and the qualities that you are looking for in an Au Pair will be discussed during this time. It is also a very good opportunity for you to know us, our services and how we can deliver these services to you. If you have concerns, this is also the perfect opportunity to address those concerns.
Also to be discussed are the working schedule of the Au Pair, how can she acquaint herself with the Dutch culture, society and way of life, the required Dutch language course for the Au Pair, the rules and regulations concerning the stay of an Au Pair in the Netherlands in general. Also during this meeting, IND (MVV) visa application procedure and IND-required documents will also be explained. For more information regarding MVV visa application procedure for Au Pairs, please visit www.ind.nl.
Secondly, when the IND required documents are completed and forms are all filled in, the (MVV) visa application begins. It takes about 4-8 weeks, depending on the completeness and accuracy of submitted documents.
Thirdly, immediately upon arrival of the Au Pair in Holland, she will be oriented and trained by our trainor in our own premises for 3-5 days (depending on her ability to adapt and adjust). Based on our experience, this orientation is very crucial on this critical period of adjustment and acclimatization. Our approach is different from the conventional Au Pair agency norms. For the best interest of the Host Family and the Au Pair alike, we believe that the Au Pair must be trained in Holland, not in the Philippines. It will save us precious time, effort and money.
