Find a family
We live in a beautiful location just outside of London. We have a beautiful family home with 2 acres of land and wonderful neighbours surrounded by fields and wildlife. Ethan is our 19 month old child who is very bubbly, very active, very social and very engaged. He LOVES books and reading. He loves helping out in the kitchen. He loves the cats. I try and take him out of the house as much as possible when he’s not at nursery. I have a very strict no screen time policy with Ethan - so he has no access to phones, TV, tablets at all. We don’t have the tv on when he is awake. We are a very outdoorsy family and try to connect with nature as much as possible. We love cooking - I cook all meals and snacks for Ethan as I want him to eat really healthily and he loves spice and flavour. Our cats are strictly indoor cats and are so loving. They need play time and cuddles often :) (don’t we all!)
We are a Romanian family based in the UK since 2021. Since our second child Ana was born, we needed help with kids and house chores, and it becomes quite expensive to pay for nannies, cleaner and cooker sometimes, so we will be needing a stay in nanny thar will help us with everything else. At least until the end of the year, there will be at least one parent at home at all times. We strongly believe in councious parenting, connection and open communication with our children. We dedicate all our time and energy in raising them, we apply many montessori principles and we keep a screen free environment for them. We read a lot and we spend as much time as possible outdoors.
Ozgun is looking for an au pair in Surrey, United Kingdom
Hi, I’m a single mum of two. It’s an all girls household and I’m a relatively young mum. One baby and one child in school. I work full time and need help with the baby and keeping on top of our home generally. We have a good sized house - five bedrooms. And live in central scotland. Less than one hour to both Edinburgh and Glasgow, it’s a great base for travel anywhere in Europe as you can be at the airport within 20 minutes. We travel often and travelling with us is not necessary so you would have plenty spare time. Weekend or evening work would also be rare so plenty of time for yourself and to explore the country. I just really need help in working hours to allow me to work.

In this video, we will ll share with you what you can expect from the au pair experience and the incredible benefits of embarking on this unique journey as an au pair.
Some au pair agencies can be a bit more hands-off. Okay, we don’t like to brag or anything, but we often hear that we are super involved and know what’s up with the legislation laws. Moving abroad is a big step! It’s an exciting adventure and we guide you in every step no matter where in the world you are for the best cultural exchange and work abroad experience!
Your main responsibility will be toward the children. Spending time with children is one of the most rewarding parts of the au pair job abroad as you build lasting connections with your host kids. Alongside the children, you also will be responsible for light household tasks that fall within your schedule per week.
If you are talking to multiple host families, it is important to align on what your expectations are for the year. Some host families want an au pair available during the day for their children and others want more morning help before school and evening help after school.
Personality and how you would like to spend your free time should also be considered when choosing the host family that is a good fit for you. By doing this, you will help yourself be the perfect au pair for your host family too!
It can always happen that the vibes are off in your new house or you disagree with a family member. This is why you discuss a notice agreement. This is usually 1 or 2 months. Actually, this almost never happens because you get to know your host family and children beforehand so you know about their family life. If you don’t like your host family, we’ll go look for another host family!
In addition to room and board which is a private room in the house and food for meals, au pairs are paid monthly pocket money by their host family that they can spend in their free time. The amount depends on which country you want to au pair in but should be enough money to enjoy the local culture. Check out the pocket money in your host country.
In most countries, you are also entitled to payment from your host family in the form of a language course to improve your language skills. You can learn English or learn a new language depending on your goals and how you want to integrate with your new culture. In other countries, this money can be allocated to other learning opportunities if you would like to opt out of language courses.
Yes! Au pairs are entitled to a certain amount of paid holiday depending on the country they are in. You should check with your host family to find the best week to go. Traveling is a wonderful opportunity to see some of the best scenery your host country or neighboring countries have to offer and a great way to meet other like-minded young people. You can check the rules regarding holiday leave per country right here.
I became an au pair abroad because I love cultural exchanges and I wanted to experience it while becoming a member of a local family. I enjoy languages 🗣️, traveling ✈️ and engaging with other cultures. Being an au pair gives me that possibility daily. I learn a lot from the three children I look after and I’ve built a connection with them that I will carry in my heart forever. ❤️
I’ve made some amazing friends here and have unforgettable memories with them. I’ve also had many opportunities to travel✈️ Being an au pair abroad has been such an amazing experience, and it’s changed my life living with the most amazing host parents and kids. 👨👩👧 Leaving my home country to come here was difficult, having to say goodbye to everything I knew and loved. But when it comes time to leave here, it will be even more difficult. But I’ll be walking away with amazing memories that will last a lifetime, and that’s something I’ll be forever grateful for! ❤️
Great and great service! I would say I had a great and wonderful experience because the team is made up of great people. From the very beginning until now that I am here in the Netherlands, they have been in constant communication with me. Michelle was just so helpful in everything. Everything just goes smoothly with the process and assures you of what will happen next. Thank you, Nina.care!
I had a hard time at the beginning of my arrival, but luckily Nina.care’s au pair agency was always there to help. Gave me advice and tips. After three months in the Netherlands, I was finally able to adapt and learn new things. Get out of my comfort zone and try to do my best as an au pair. I remember it very well, when I arrived in the Netherlands I received a package from Nina.care, containing several welcome gifts for me because I had arrived in the Netherlands. I was touched and happy.
