The earlier a language is introduced, the easier it will be assimilated" (Antoine Gentil, co-founder of Mômji). 

Founded in 2009, the Mômji-Bilingual concept has been designed to meet two main parents' needs: to offer a simple childcare service, while offering kids the opportunity to learn a foreign language.

The meeting between the two co-founders

After spending two years with his family in Dallas (Texas), Antoine Gentil became completely fluent in English when he came back to France, and so were his three sisters. He soon realized that being in total immersion in a foreign language allows you to learn it quickly.

His entrepreneur spirit sees it as an opportunity to offer language immersion at home for children.

In 2009, as part of a master's degree "Innovate and Entrepreneurship" at ESCP-Europe, a prestigious business school in Paris, he met Julien Viaud (HEC Montréal), who had already spent part of his life in Canada.

The two men were therefore sensitive to language learning and decided to put what they had learned into practice, to found Baby-Speaking (later called Mômji).

By surrounding themselves with recruitment professionals, Maria Kihlstedt - lecturer at Paris X-CNRS in psycholinguistics - and John Herbstritt - specialized in language rhetoric at Berkeley University - they developed educational tools and training to make their project real.

What is Mômji-Bilingual ?

Baby-Speaking is a language immersion childcare service. Our babysitting agency, based in Paris, offers native or bilingual nannies who take care of your children as soon as they leave school, nursery or on Wednesdays. Your kids will learn their first words without realizing it!

Even though the majority of parents’ requests concern English, keep it mind that we offer childcare in other languages: German, Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Italian, Russian or Arabic.

IMPORTANT : You can also find our babysitting agencies in Lyon, Bordeaux, Lille, Marseille, Montpellier, Nantes, Nice, Rennes, Strasbourg, Toulouse.

Why choose our babysitting agency?

Babysitters with significant experience

Our nannies are passionate and already have significant childcare experience. Our speakers selected for our "immersion in a foreign language" offer have validated a mother tongue or bilingual level in the chosen language.

The goal is not only linguistic: we also encourage foreign babysitters to share their culture of origin with children (stories, Christmas traditions, etc.) to help kids to be open-minded.

Your nannies use a kit of fun activities to do with your children

You will receive an activity case: finger puppets, passport, flashcards, game of 7 families ...

Our approach is inspired by Active pedagogies

Your babysitter receives a tutorial video with the activity of the week every Monday. Our approach aims to contribute to the awakening of your children, to promote their autonomy and their curiosity while adapting to their needs, desire and age.

Easier administrative formalities

We take care of children since 2009. We also make administrative tasks easier for parents, and our services allow you to get 50% tax exemption and CAF assistance. Save time, while saving your budget!
