Au pairs — flexible live-in childcare & cultural exchange

Au pairs offer flexible, live-in support and a rich cultural exchange for the whole family — ideal for wrap-around school care, busy mornings and after-school hours. Please note that au pairs do not provide sole care for children under two.

Au pairs: flexible childcare and a cultural gift

An au pair brings something no other childcare can: flexible, live-in support and a genuine cultural exchange that enriches the whole family. For school-age children across London and the Home Counties — from Surrey and Berkshire to Hertfordshire and Sussex — an au pair covers busy mornings, school runs and after-school hours, and adapts naturally to holidays and the unexpected. Our candidates come from trusted partner agencies worldwide and from UK-eligible backgrounds, each interviewed, referenced and prepared for life with a British family.

Au pairs suit families with children over two who want warmth, flexibility and value; if you need sole care for a baby or more experienced hands, a junior nanny or professional nanny is the better path — and we'll always advise honestly.
