Au pair

Post by **Siwanan** » Thu Apr 15, 2004 10:55 pm

Sawasdee kha,

I will move to Hua Hin on August-September with my two boys adopted from Thailand (2 and 4 years) . We will stay there for about 2-3 months. My husband will visit there too for some time, but most of the time there are only three of us.
I need an au pair to look after children sometimes, but mostly to help with general things during the day (shopping, cooking, cleaning and just for some company to us)
Later, when we will travel back to Finland, Europe I need You as an au pair in Finland to help with the same things!
You should be under 30-years if you want to travel to Finland as an au pair.

With the best regards
Mrs. Nina

Siwanan, there may not be that many Thais reading this forum, so you could also try posting this message in our own Finnish language forum:

or one which is widely read by younger Thais

I may be entirely wrong, but I have the impression that it isn't easy for young thais to get an exit visa to leave thailand for travelling. If they don't have a bank account with sufficient balance, or own a house, the authorities appear to decline their application. Like I say, could be pure codswallop. Wiser heads than mine may know the situation...

We have had Thai-au pair before and there wasn't any problem to get an au pair visa for a year. The host family just have to get workingpermit (is that a right word..??) for her/him first.
That all took from us last time about 1-2 months. And everybody was happy; we get an an pair and she had a change to come to Finland to her boyfriend for a year! Well, I don't know about that romance anymore..
