Au Pair Program in Europe

What is an Au Pair/Caregiver ?

Au pairs are caring, live-in child-care providers between the ages of 18 and 26 who live as an extended member of their host family. Au pairs receive room, board and a small stipend. Our au pair service places au pairs from more than 40 countries with host families in the United States. We place au pairs in the UK through our affiliate organization, HR Nepal. It is a famous, registered human resource agency in the USA and Nepal.
