WHY SMART AU PAIRS?

When you join our au pair program, your happiness as an au pair is paramount to us and we want you to be so happy that you recommend your friends to be au pair too!

We are simply passionate about the benefits of aupairing and that's why our au pair agency offers a wide range of destinations abroad for Australians and the most extensive pre-departure training and preparation package! Look at all the stuff we include on our au pair program:

  • Information session before travel overseas
  • Online au pair course with OCN accredited certificate
  • Support with your family interviews -
  • Screened host-family of your choice, agree prior to your departure
  • Placement guarantee
  • Pre-departure pack including cultural guide book about your chosen destination
  • Airport collection (by host family)
  • Welcome pack on location
  • Follow up and support from expert local agency
  • Certificate upon completion

We place au pairs in all our destinations and in some countries we also offer other live-in cultural exchange programs such as nanny, flex-nanny, mother's help and tutor. We offer more programs and more countries.

We place with vetted families and in collaboration with a network of trusted agencies working to the highest quality standards in the industry.

Our Smart Au Pairs office in the UK is a member of BAPAA, British Au Pair Agency Association and both the Australian and UK office are members of 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.






Our goal is for every au pair to tell their friends about the experience and recommend them to join our Smart Au Pair program too!
