Review ✨

In the beginning of my Au Pair Journey I was skeptical of going through an agency. However, Global Youth changed my mind. My agents name is Mars, he has had my back through it all. He is patient, honest, kind, trust worthy and so much more. He truly cares about the Au Pairs, and is so incredibly helpful. When you chose Global Youth you chose to work with him and he won’t let you down, he’s spectacular at English and will be able to answer all of your questions. He checks in on you often, and has steady communication with your host families. If you have any issues you can talk to him about it and he will no doubt assist you.

If you’re young and worried about moving abroad, chose Global Youth. You will never feel alone.

China is a beautiful city, the public transportation is quick and easy to learn, the people are generous and there’s so much to see and do! Traveling to other cities on your off days is simple and so exciting.

The agency assists with the visa application making it a very simple process.

Moving across the world can be scary, so choosing the right support is crucial. I never doubting choosing global youth, I always felt protected and heard. I can ensure you will feel the same.

What was the most surprising thing you saw or did?
I visted Shanghai and we went clubbing till 8am. Oh and in Hangzhou they have a light show at urban balcony, it was the coolest thing I’ve ever seen!
Pros
  • Good support from agency
  • Public transport is cheap and easy
  • So much culture and traditions to learn about
Cons
  • The language barrier, but it’s fine just use google translate

Au pair experience with Global Youth

My experience as an au pair in China with the agency "Global Youth" was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I decided to embark on this journey, the agency provided unwavering support and assistance. They guided me through the process of obtaining a Chinese student visa, meticulously helped plan my trip, and facilitated detailed discussions with my host family prior to my departure.

The head of the company is a young professional with impeccable English skills, always available to answer questions and dispel any doubts, making the entire process seamless. Upon my arrival in China, my experience continued to be wonderful. My host family welcomed me warmly, and I enjoyed my time with them and my Chinese language teacher immensely.

The cultural exchange was enriching, and I received a monthly salary that was appropriate for the amount of free time I had. Teaching English to the child in my host family has been a rewarding experience. Overall, my time in China has been fantastic, and the straightforward visa process, thanks to Global Youth, made everything even better.

What was the most unfamiliar thing you ate?
Silkworms. It was a delicious meal!
