Becoming a host family in Australia

Work, meetings, appointments, stress and kids ➪ Parents need perseverance!

Are you interested in becoming a host family in Australia? With an Au Pair, you get the chance to schedule times you need help with your children. You will be flexible to make arrangements because the Au Pair will relieve your family from everyday stress! It is great, knowing that someone from a different cultural background, who you know and trust, cares for your children.

 

There are many reasons why families decide to host an Au Pair in their home:

  1. One reason is, that your child and the whole family can benefit from the different cultural background of the Au Pair. Your child will get a global education and can even be raised bilingual. Your little gems will have the unique possibility to learn a language playfully. Your child can learn about the Au Pair’s culture and get to know new values.
  2. Moreover, the AuPair will simplify your life as a parent. With an Au Pair, you get the chance to schedule times you need help with your children. Au Pairs can work up to 25-35 hours per week. You will be flexible to make arrangements and happy to know that someone you trust takes care of your children.
  3. It is less expensive than other child care options such as Nannys. In Australia, Au Pairs are entitled to be paid 150 – 250 AU$ per week!
