Norway is a country in Scandinavia that borders Finland and Sweden. When you host an au pair from Norway, you and your children will have the opportunity to learn first-hand about a culture and place in the world that is different from your own. Just as importantly, your au pair will have the same opportunity! Norway has a rich history and your au pair will have a wonderful time sharing about it while she is a part of your family.
General Facts About Norway
Your Norweigan au pair will teach you many things that you might not know about Norway, such as:
- Norway's population is over 5.2 million.
- The country is home to the most fjords as part of its landscape than any other country.
- Norwegian is the official language, but almost every citizen also speaks English because it is taught as a second language in school.
- The Nobel Peace Prize is awarded in Oslo, Norway's capital, and the recipients are chosen by a panel of native Norwegians.
Your au pair will tell you fascinating facts just like these and many more when you welcome her into your family.
Family Life and Children in Norway
The family is very important to the people of Norway. In fact, parental leave is a national institution. It allows parents to recover and bond with their children after their birth. Typically, Norwegians do not have more than two children. But even with a relatively small family unit on average, familial bonds are strong in Norway. Your Norwegian au pair will proudly demonstrate this dedication to family while caring for your children.
Driving Skills
You can't get a driver's license in Norway until you turn 18. And you have to get through a process before you're given your license. First, you have to take a four-day class about basic driving concepts, first aid, and how to react after an accident. Next, you have to pass a theory exam and then a practical exam. Even after you receive your license, you have to get through a two-year trial period where you could potentially lose your license and have to start the process again.
Education
School is mandatory for children between the ages of 6 and 16 in Norway. From 6 to 13, children are in elementary school and then move to lower secondary school from 13 to 16. After finishing lower secondary, children can continue on to upper secondary school for more general education and vocational courses. After two years in upper secondary, they go on to enter apprenticeships and learn new skills onsite.
Communication and Language Skills
The official language of Norway is Norwegian, but Bokmal, Nynorsk and Saami are also recognized. Many people in Norway also speak English and even another language, like German, French or Spanish.
Religion
The majority religion in Norway is Christianity, which makes up around 75% of the population. The next most common affiliation is those who are not affiliated with any specific faith, making up about 16% of the population.
Diet
Similar to many families in the United States, Norwegians eat three or four main meals during the day, with a hot meal with family at dinnertime being the main one. Traditional dishes include krumkake, lutefisk and farikal.

I would be happy to participate in the Au Pair exchange program in the USA because I really love to take care for children and want to become part of a family in the U.S. To get to know the american way of life is one of my oldest dreams. Discovering unknown places, new cultures and making friends on another part of the world is what I appriciate most . Improving my English is one of the nice side effects. I guess this special experience will let me grow in many aspects. Since I have a lot of experience in child care in different constellations I am mostly qualified. One of my biggest strenghts are my sense of responsibilty and my organizational skills. Since I have a very positive attitude it´s easy for my to deal with difficult situations. I am absolutly reliable and always open to something new, helpful and curios.

I would like to participate in the Au Pair program in the United States because it is an experience that I have dreamed of doing for a very long time. Travelling makes me feel good and helps me to grow up, I have travelled a lot in my life and every place I have gone to has left me with something. I also chose this experience because I really like children and I enjoy spending time with them and my family.
