What is an Au Pair? 

An au pair is like a friendly and caring big sibling from another country who comes to live with your family and help with childcare and light household tasks. They bring a world of new perspectives and traditions, creating a unique learning opportunity for your children while providing you with reliable support.

Our carefully selected au pairs are like extended family members, offering safe and nurturing care that allows you to work, study, run your business or just have a more balanced life.

We are dedicated to ensuring both you and your au pair have a successful placement and connect you with au pairs that suit you and who will become cherished members of your family’s journey.

Benefits of Hosting an Au Pair

Having an Au Pair makes your life smoother by helping caring for your children and assisting with the day to day family routine such as getting kids ready for school, school runs and helping with homework. They also help with preparing simple meals, and light housework  It’s important to note most Au Pairs are not experienced child carers or nannies – although we can recruit more experienced Au Pairs for families that need care for your children.

Hosting an Au Pair gives you more quality time for you to enjoy your children!
