Process for Hosting an Au Pair

We facilitate the matching process between au pairs and host families to ensure a successful and enriching experience.

Online Registration

After discussing your needs and preferences to find the ideal au pair, you complete your online registration. Once your profile is finalized, we add it to our internal database. Unlike other services, we don't offer a catalog directly accessible to au pairs. Instead, we personally review each request to ensure that au pair profiles perfectly match your expectations. We send you the profiles of au pairs who have successfully passed our security checks and thorough interviews.

Interviews and Selection

We will organize interviews with you to better understand your needs and expectations. During these discussions, we help you refine your criteria and prepare for welcoming your au pair. You'll have the opportunity to ask all your questions and clarify expectations before making the final selection. We ensure that you are completely satisfied with the choice before proceeding with the match.

Once you have selected your au pair, we assist you in preparing for their arrival by providing all the necessary information on the integration process. We will guide you through the final administrative steps and offer advice for a warm welcome. We remain available for any support you may need to ensure a smooth transition for both you and your au pair.

Conditions for Hosting an Au Pair

Private Accommodation

The au pair must have a private, clean, and well-maintained bedroom that provides a level of privacy.

To host an au pair in your home, several conditions must be met to ensure a positive experience for both you and the au pair.

Here are the main requirements to consider :

Food and Meals

The host family must provide all meals for the au pair, taking into account their specific dietary needs.

Compliance with the Contract

The family must respect the terms of the contract, including the au pair's working hours, days off, leave and vacations.

Remuneration

The host family must pay the agreed remuneration to the au pair, according to the terms established in the contract. The salary must comply with the standards in force for au pairs in the host country.

Safety Checks

The host family must provide a safe environment. Although checks are usually handled by the agency, it is essential that families undergo appropriate security checks to ensure the safety of the au pair.

Fair Working Conditions

The working hours and responsibilities of the au pair must be clear and not exceed what is provided for in the contract. The family must ensure that the au pair has sufficient free time for personal activities.

What you can expect from an Au Pair

As a host family, you will have the opportunity to play a crucial role in your au pair’s experience.

Here is an overview of what you can expect from an au pair :

Open Communication : An au pair should be able to communicate clearly and regularly with you. Good communication is essential for resolving issues quickly and ensuring a smooth experience for everyone involved.

Adaptability :

Au pairs come from different cultures and may need time to adjust. Expect some initial adjustments and be prepared to offer support during this transition period.

Commitment :

An au pair is there to assist with household tasks and childcare, according to the terms of the contract. It is important to have clear expectations from the start to ensure a positive and productive experience for all parties.

Respect for Rules :

Au pairs should respect house rules and expectations defined in the contract. Make sure that house rules and expectations are openly discussed and understood by both sides.

Ongoing Guidance :

To ensure successful integration, it may be necessary to provide continuous guidance and support. An au pair may benefit from additional training and information to better understand local practices and family routines.

Support and Patience : Providing support and showing patience is crucial. Au pairs are often young and away from home for the first time. A supportive and patient approach can greatly contribute to their well-being and success in your family.
