WHAT WILL MY HOURS BE, AND HOW MUCH CAN I EXPECT TO EARN?

2021: This information is under review 

Au Pair (25-30 hours per week)

• Typically works for 5-6 hours per day
• Up to two evenings of babysitting per week may be included within these hours
• Receives 2 full days off per week (typically the weekends)
• Minimum weekly pay from £100/week for 25h.
• No sole care for children under 2

Any additional hours should be paid extra at a minimum hourly rate. 

As part of the programme, your accommodation is included (your own bedroom within the family’s home), as well as full board (all meals included).

Au pairs who complete their agreed placement duration with their host family will receive a bonus of one week’s pay at the end of their placement.

And in some cases there are other elements to consider:

• Use of car in your spare time
• Gym membership
• The chance to travel abroad with the family
• Contribution towards travel expenses
• Contribution towards language school
