What happens when you host an au pair?
A young person (typically aged between 18 and 30) from a foreign country joins your family and is integrated as a full-fledged member of the family team for a defined period of time (usually from 3 - 12 months).
-
Au pairs help with childcare and family tasks - usually for about 30 hours per week.
-
In return, au pairs get a room of their own in the family home, share meals with the family and receive a standard amount of monthly pocket money.
