WHY SMART AU PAIRS?
Your happiness as an au pair is paramount to us and we want every au pair to recommend all her friends to be au pair too!
We place quickly, sometimes in a matter of days!
We place only with vetted families and in collaboration with a network of trusted agencies working to the highest quality standards in the industry.
We are members of BAPAA, British Au Pair Agency Association and IAPA the International Au Pair Association, so you can trust us to work to the highest standards in the country.
Our UK host families are carefully selected and many of them have been with us for a long time and recommended their friends.
We are the only au pair agency where you can get a childcare qualification as an au pair in the UK.
Summary of what we offer our au pairs:
- Safe introductions to vetted and instructed families who are looking for a ‘cultural childcare’ experience (not a ‘cheap cleaner’)
- Generous au pair welcome pack and follow up calls
- Support for au pairs (in native language if needed), 24hr helpline, excursions / meetings, ‘find a friend’ website
- Training opportunities such as introduction to au pairing (Europe) first aid and Vocational childcare qualifications (UK only)
We specialise in bringing au pairs to Britain but we are gaining experience in placements abroad and we improve this service on an ongoing basis, adding more host countries and negotiating more benefits for au pairs continuously.
We support you at key moments,just before you travel and just after you arrive with your host family. At any other time, you or your family back home can contact us.There is a 24 hour helpline for au pairs, and you can expect a call within first 2 weeks to ensure all is going well.
We give you a smartaupairs starter pack with practical gifts.
After completing the cultural exchange program, you receive a Smart Au Pairs
certificate.
Our goal is for every au pair to tell their friends that they are having a great time and to recommend them to be a Smart au pair too!
