In the UK, au pairs typically receive around ยฃ360 per month in pocket money. This amount is separate from the free accommodation and meals provided by the host family.
Some families also help with language courses or transport passes, which brings the average monthly cost for families to around ยฃ500.
โข The Matching Service can also be cancelled if you no longer need assistance for any reason, but itโs a successfee: We commit to finding your au pair and will share several rounds of candidates until we do.
โข The Aftercare Package remains active for the full duration of your au pairโs stay with your family.

Health insurance is the responsibility of the aupair, however hosts can offer to (partially) cover this cost as a bonus. Cost differ per country and per company.
We recommend working with for example Dr Walter: they have a โYoung backpack, Au pair travel insuranceโ including dental, with good price/ quality balance.
“Monthly basic expenses include
1. Au pairโs pocket money: ยฃ360
2. Food and accommodation: provided by host
As the au pair does not receive a high pocket money, itโs kind to help a bit with small extra. โจThis is optional, but can help to find a great match as well
โข Travel allowance: ยฃ60 p/m
โข Phone plan: ยฃ25 p/m
โข Gym membership: ยฃ40 p/m
โข Museum card or cinema card: ยฃ30 p/m
Or other benefits to help your au pair feel more comfortable and welcome during their stay.”
The aftercare, contract and visa support package at ยฃ350 is optional, but Nina.care is an au pair Agency, meaning we cover not just the search of your au pair, but we are there for you during rematch, registration, visa and contract questions.
Arrange your au pair without missing anything with the ยฃ68 per month membership during the term.
We recommend host families to pay 50% of the flightโจโจThere is no legal rule in the UK about who must pay for the au pairโs flight ticket. However, as the cultural exchange is a win-win and the pocket money is not high, itโs kind to help the young candidate with 50%.
Some host families cover the full ticket, which is very nice. We as agency do favour some commitment and investment from the aupair as well.
The pocket money is paid directly by the host family to the au pair.
Once the au pair arrives in the host country, it is important that they open a local bank account so the monthly payments can be transferred easily.
There is always a small risk that a match does not work out as expected. To reduce this risk, our after care package includes an alignment meeting between the host family and the au pair before the start of the placement. During this meeting, important topics such as the start date, pocket money, vacation days, weekly schedule, and expectations are discussed to make sure everyone is on the same page.
If the match still does not work out, there is a transition period of 2โ4 weeks during which both the host family and the au pair can look for a new match or decide on the next steps.
When Premium Matching Service families have an actie โAftercare packageโ at moment of rematch, we will find them a new candidate without extra costs.
