This can affect how much you will be paid by your host family.
You can choose more than 1 option, which can make you suitable to more families.
Au Pair
An Au Pair is normally a single person, male or female, aged 18 years or more. You are here primarily to look after children and learn the language as well as being an extra pair of hands. An au pair’s duties might include washing, ironing, light house-work (vacuuming, dusting, washing dishes), meal preparation, taking children to and from play-group/school, and otherwise helping with the children (feeding, bathing, creative activities, homework). As an au pair you can work for up to 25 hours per week, usually 5 hours per day, with usually two days per week completely free, including Sunday.
Payment: Usually £90 per week or more depending on the location, and you will get free lodgings and meals.
Au Pair Plus
Sometimes the normal 5 hours a day or 25 hours may not be enough for a busy family with two working parents. An Au Pair Plus will still not take care of a baby under the age of two for regular long hours.
An Au Pair Plus is normally a single person, male or female, aged 18 years or more. You might help with children and light household chores for around 30 hours per week. While an Au Pair Plus can work more than a normal au pair, the hours should be kept to 30 hours per week during term time, to enable you to attend language classes if you wish.
Normal Au Pair Plus duties include childcare, preparing light meals for the children, tidying, washing and ironing, light housework such as dusting, sweeping/mopping and vacuuming, cleaning the kitchen or bathroom. Jobs which are not considered routine light housework include wiping down skirting boards and paintwork, polishing brass or silver etc. Your family will give you a timetable and the total number of hours they expect you to work. Traditionally the Au Pair’s work is at least 50% child related, so any variation on this needs to be discussed and agreed with you in advance. If you will be the only person doing most of the weekly housework, or if the job involves little or no childcare, you should tell us. Some male Au Pairs may be willing to undertake outdoor tasks instead of doing indoor housework.
Payment: Usually £100 per week depending on the location, and you will get free lodgings and meals.
Mother’s Help
A Mother’s Help is not normally a formally qualified nanny but is an experienced childcarer usually aged 18 or more with references to show that they have good childcare experience.
Normal working hours would be between 35 and40 hours a week with weekends free. A mother’s helper may also care for a baby or young child if they have 50 hours experience or qualifications. The timetable and responsibilities for a mother’s helper will be agreed with the agency beforehand.
The payment you will receive is from £120 per week depending on the location and your experience, and you will get free lodgings and meals.instead of doing indoor housework.
Payment: Usually £120+ per week depending on the location and your experience, and you will get free lodgings and meals.
