Au Pair House is an accommodation agency with a difference, offering Au Pair accommodation programs with personal service and care. Our client’s happiness, comfort and satisfaction are our main goals.

We are a family business based on the Gold Coast with a unique combination of skills that enable us to locate and place Au Pairs with families in Australia.

The director of the business, Renata McCarthy, has been an Au Pair herself during her travels when she was 19 years old. In the last 10 years, Renata and her partner have received more than 30 home-stay students from Japan and other countries in their own home on the Gold Coast. Today they have two beautiful girls who love their time with the Au Pairs who are hosted in their home.

Au Pair House are aware of the value of cross cultural experiences and understand that many families in Australia need help with their children and also managing light house work in their daily routines.

Our aim for our families
Au Pair House understands that each family is different, and has individual needs and requirements. Our aim is to provide our Australian families valuable assistance in their daily routines at a minimal cost by providing accommodation and meals. The Au Pairs are able to provide help with general house duties and/or child minding, depending on what is most required for the household.

Our aim for our Au Pairs
Our aim is to provide our Au Pairs with the opportunity to experience Australia within a comfortable family lifestyle, on a budget, while still having free time to study, work and travel. Our goal is to provide good quality accommodation while providing a unique experience by being part of an Australian family as well as gaining Au Pair experience on the beautiful Gold Coast and elsewhere in Australia.

“We work a lot, and the extra help at home is wonderful. We have much more free time now to spend on what we like doing. Having the program designed specially for our family, our life became easier. It’s amazing the difference it makes when all the little things are done!”
