FEES FOR HOST FAMILIES

We believe our fees offer good value for money and reflect the quality we deliver. Smartaupairs do not charge au pairs.

A member of our experienced team follows up your registration with a telephone consultation to discuss your family’s requirements and answer your questions.

We activate your search with a non refundable deposit of £40. This way, we can give our undivided attention to families ready to start interviewing.

All our loyal customers receive a reward for returning to Smartaupairs and for recommending friends, see our Discounts & Incentives page.

Placements include replacement guarantee of 30 days, expect summer placements.
