At Nina.care, we take great care in selecting au pair candidates who truly fit your family. Our au pairs go through:
✨ A full interview to assess motivation and experience.
✨ English language test
✨ Medical and criminal record checks.
✨ Reference checks from previous host families.
We also save videos from au pair interviews, which you can watch in the au pair’s profile — giving you a clear impression of the candidate before even speaking with them.
