Au Pair Program information

Au pair program is a mix of housework and nannie work. Candidates can enrol in our programs through an agent or direct on our website. It is a simple process and should take moments to be completed, and only a few days for Au Pair House to find the best match for your requests.

Au Pair House has 2 different programs called the Dolphin and Mermaid Packages, which include different things. However they both cover 3 months of accommodation and meals, transfer, booklets of duties and responsibilities and much more!
Both the mermaid and dolphin programs have the features outlined below:

• Excellent accommodation in a great location.
• Maximum 4 hours a day, only 5 days a week, weekends off. All meals for 7 days a week.
• The work and the family profile will be described to the au pair before payment and commencement, so the au pair will know exactly what is expected, and when to start and finish everyday.
• The families associated with the programs are carefully selected, assessed and they all live in very nice homes and close to shops, transport, and the beach. All families have the “Blue card”- Non-criminal records.
• Assistance during the program duration.
• Au pairs need basic English only.
• The au pairs can find a paid job, travel, study or just relax at home in their free time.

Please note : holders of an Australian student visa are only permitted to work for 20 hours a week; and must only commence work in Australia after they have acquired "work permission" upon arrival and commencement of the course associated with their student visa. This restriction does not apply to those holding a "working holiday visa".

Au pairs don’t need any experience or qualifications to apply for this kind of accommodation and au pair program. Families are happy to have friendly help in the house, and also glad to be participating in a cultural exchange program.
