We are a group of mothers who arrange tailor-made language exchanges between families in the UK, Ireland, the US, France, Spain, Italy and Germany. We firmly believe that total immersion in a loving family is the most efficient and fun way to improve your children’s language skills.
1. Total immersion in a French family builds on and gives relevance to the basics learnt at school. It helps children prepare for school exams.
2. Children develop greater mental agility, confidence in their communication skills and awareness of another culture and international solidarity.
3. Multilingualism and knowledge of other cultures is essential for future professional mobility
1. You can rest assured that your children will be introduced to a trustworthy and loving French family personally selected for you by one of our Godmothers. The family’s interest is not financial.
2. We always endeavour to match children with similar interests such as riding, tennis, football etc.
3. A French language exchange with a family with a child of the same age is the most stimulating and fun way to improve your child’s foreign language skills.
4. As the sole foreign guest staying with the family you are guaranteed that your child will be hearing and speaking French and not his or her mother tongue.
5. Children can start preparing their French language exchange by communicating in the foreign language by telephone and internet as soon as the family match has been made.
6. Excellent value for money. You only pay introduction fees and travel expenses.
7. Our Godmothers offer advice, support and services aimed at ensuring the exchange takes place as smoothly as possible
8. The motivation and quality of the families in our network often leads to continuing French exchanges and long term friendships.
