Find the course that fits your childcare

The flexible one-to-one formula is the most adaptable for an au pair. The morning module is the lightest group option. The general and intensive courses take the whole morning: they only fit when the children are at school or childcare is covered.

Questions

Which course suits an au pair in Cádiz?

The flexible one-to-one formula: €35 an hour, 1 to 20 hours a week, at times agreed with the school around your childcare. If the children are at school in the morning, the Erasmus morning module (Monday to Friday, 09:45–11:30) is the lightest group option. The general course (09:45–13:30) and the intensive course (09:00–13:30) take the whole morning: they only fit if the children are at school or childcare is covered.

How much does it cost?

One-to-one: €35 an hour. Erasmus morning module: €95 for one week, €90 a week for 2–3 weeks, €85 a week for 4–6 weeks. General Spanish (20 lessons): €225 for one week, €220 for 2–3 weeks, €215 for 4–6 weeks, €210 a week from 7 weeks. Intensive Spanish (25 lessons): €245, €240, €235 and €230 a week on the same scale. The €150 booking deposit includes materials and the end-of-session certificate. These are the school’s prices: no au pair rate is shown here.

Are there hidden fees?

No invented au pair rate and no hidden fee in this page. The school asks for a €150 booking deposit, which includes the didactic materials and the end-of-session certificate. Ask the school for the written confirmation of what the deposit covers before you pay.

What is the cancellation policy?

Full refund if you cancel more than 30 days before the start of the course. Within 30 days, €150 is retained. Confirm the terms in writing with the school when you book.

Can I prepare for the DELE exam?

Yes. Spanish in Cadiz prepares candidates for the official DELE diplomas, from A1 to C2. The 2027 sessions follow the official Instituto Cervantes calendar, which sets the dates and fees. Ask the school which sessions it hosts in Cádiz and which preparation format matches your exam date.

How many hours can I work if I study?

In Spain, au pair tasks are capped at 5 hours a day, with at least one full free day a week. A lesson is not childcare time: agree your lesson times with your host family in the placement agreement before you book.

Spanish rules: Real Decreto 1155/2024 (BOE), Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores. Rules change: check your consulate before applying. Checked on 4 November 2026.
