The world's leading online au pair agency
AuPairWorld's international team of experts explain how their website brings au pairs and host families together – simply, safely and directly.
Your No. 1 au pair agency on the Internet – What we Do
On www.aupairworld.com, au pairs and host families can find each other by their own initiative, quickly and directly. Our users benefit not only from the greatest choice of au pairs and host families worldwide but also from the dedicated support of our highly experienced team.
Since its founding in 1999, more than 3 million au pairs and host families have registered on AuPairWorld.
How it works
AuPairWorld offers au pairs and host families the possibility to search for each other using simple, specially designed web-based tools. The first step is to register for free on www.aupairworld.com. All our users then receive suggestions of matching profiles according to their personal search criteria and can send so-called standard messages on AuPairWorld to get in touch with their favourite candidates.
As soon as they wish to exchange personal messages, the host family can decide to become a Premium Member. Au pairs can use our services for free.
On AuPairWorld, au pairs and host families can get to know each other better - the best preparation for a successful au pair placement. Using the personal messages of the messaging system, they have the opportunity to contact each other directly and exchange all the necessary information.
As soon as au pairs and host families have chosen each other, they can start organising the au pair stay (au pair contract, visa, etc.) together. On www.aupairworld.com, they will find all important information to get prepared in the best possible way. For further questions, our users can also send us an e-mail or call us.
