Destino Idiomas

I had the opportunity to au pair in northern Spain for 9 months, I ended up leaving after 3. During my time I visited many nearby cities and learned a lot about the culture and the language. I developed a lot from this programme while having the comfort of a host family. The communication and support from both the agency and the family were wonderful. I found an amazing Spanish teacher here and she taught me so much!

For me, being an au pair simply wasn't a match and I would just suggest that you really have to have the skills and enjoyment of every part of being with a child otherwise it may not be for you. Nevertheless, the wonderful moments I had here with the family and friends make me feel very grateful and happy that I came here with this programme.

I loved my experience with Destino Idiomas! Ana helped match me with a wonderful family for a summer au pair experience in a suburb of Madrid. She guided me through setting my my profile and organizing documents, how to answer questions withs families in interviews, etc. The family was wonderful (all thanks to Ana's vetting process)--they had great kids and a lovely home. Work/life balance was great. Thank you Ana for helping place me with a great family!! I strongly recommend using Destino Idiomas for your abroad experience.

I spent a month au pairing with a family in Galicia, and from the start, Ana was incredibly helpful—guiding me through setting up my profile and organizing all the necessary documents. Her attention to detail made me feel safe and supported. Even during my stay, she offered help beyond her working hours, which I truly appreciated. The family was lovely - (no doubt thanks to Ana) and I was able to experience authentic Spanish family life and improved my language skills. I highly recommend Destino Idiomas to anyone seeking an au pair experience!

From the moment I contacted the agency, and throughout my stay in Spain, Ana provided me with incredible help and support that was not only extremely professional but also personal. Her frequent check ins meant that any problems the host family and I had were swiftly resolved, meaning that when my initial stay didn’t go to plan Ana was able to organise a perfect rematch within the three months I was there. Overall, this role as a language tutor has been incredibly valuable to my growth as a person, and as an only child it also was very fun to get the change to live with a lovely and lively family for three months. I can’t recommend Destino Idiomas enough!!

I spent around three months with a family in Talavera de la Reina, helping with their English. Ana was always a source of support. She is very accessible and accommodating. I could always count on her to settle the transition into this role and as a guide throughout the process. She actively engages online with the other au pairs/tutors to ensure we are well-connected. The time I spent in Talavera and visiting Spain was priceless. Perfect for a post-grad experience. I felt incredibly taken care of.
