Aupair experience

My experience with ICXC as an aupair was amazing, I’m very grateful for all the support and help throughout my au pair experience in China. From the beginning, they guided me through the process and were always willing to answer my questions and help whenever I needed it.
Thanks to iCXC, I had the opportunity to live in Shenzhen, experience Chinese culture, meet amazing people, and create so many unforgettable memories. This experience helped me grow, become more independent, and learn so much about myself and a new culture. Thank you, iCXC, for making this experience easier and for always being there to support me. I truly appreciate everything you did for me, and I would definitely recommend iCXC to anyone who is thinking about becoming an au pair in China

Aupair in china

My experience as an au pair has been amazing. I’ll never forget how fun and enriching it has been to live with a Chinese family for more than eight months. Both the agency and the family have been incredibly kind and supportive, always making sure I felt comfortable and listened to. Time really does fly when you’re having a good time, and this experience has passed in the blink of an eye. I’ll always cherish the memories I’ve made here, and I look forward to coming back one day to reunite with the family and the friends I met along the way.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Use your free time wisely and explore other cities whenever you can. It’s a great way to gain a deeper understanding of Chinese culture and get a more complete picture of life in China.

My experience with ICXC

I really enjoyed my stay here thanks to ICXC. The program was very good, and the agency helped me a lot! I really enjoyed being part of this program, living this incredible experience, discovering China, and meeting amazing people. I lived here in Shenzhen for three months with a family to teach English to the kids and learn about China. This was very fun, very warm, and very interesting 😆. If I have the chance to do it again, I will do it with ICXC for sure, because I had a lot of help with everything and had a wonderful stay.

Pros
  • Lot of help
  • Discover a new culture

Growth opportunity

A great way to explore China and being immersed in to the culture and habits.

At least six months is the way to fully understand the soul of this country.

It will not always perfect but if you find your own way to explore and live it at the fullest. Be ready to learn a new way to live and making new friends, they will be your saviours during hard times, sharing experiences with each others will be useful to encourage each other and walk all together during this journey.

China has many great things to offer and you will never left alone and never bored once.

6 months in Foshan

Hi, I'm Erica and I spent six months as an au pair in Foshan, Guangdong. It was an intense six months filled with fun, culture shock, and adaptability. The agency was very professional, finding me a host family within a few days and helping me with the visa and paperwork process. The family was fantastic; the parents were very outgoing and friendly, and the children were quite calm. I also had the opportunity to participate in their company's activities. Overall, I found it a very formative experience that allowed me to develop a strong adaptability.

What was your funniest moment?
When I went to the family's company to film tik toks for douyin, was a strange but fun experience
