Au pair pricing in the Netherlands

Monthly Costs (โ‚ฌ340 pocket money)

In the Netherlands, au pairs receive around โ‚ฌ340 per month in pocket money: it’s the maximum monthly stipend allowed under Dutch law.

This is separate from the free accommodation and meals provided by the host family.

In addition to pocket money, families can also contribute to support: an Ov-card for transport, activities, a gym membership, a museum card, or language courses, bringing the average monthly cost for families to around โ‚ฌ500 per month. Especially European candidates will expect a bit extra on top of the monthly pocket money.

Pricing FAQ

  • The Matching Service can also be cancelled if you no longer need assistance for any reason, but itโ€™s a successfee: We commit to finding your au pair and will share several rounds of candidates until we do.โ€จ
  • The Aftercare Package remains active for the full duration of your au pairโ€™s stay with your family.

For more detailed information about our refund policy, please click here.

Health insurance is the au pair’s responsibility. Cost differ per country and per company: In the Netherlands healthcare insurance is fully covered by the Dutch Government, but this diff3re per country.

We recommend working with, for example, Dr Walter: they have a โ€œYoung backpack, Au pair travel insuranceโ€ that includes dental, with a good price/quality balance.

Monthly basic expenses include

  1. Au pairโ€™s pocket money: +-โ‚ฌ340 p/mโ€จ
  2. Food and accommodation: provided by the host

As the au pair does not receive a high pocket money, itโ€™s kind to help a bit with a small extra. โ€จThis is optional, but it can help to find a great match as well

  • Travel allowance: โ‚ฌ60 p/m
  • Phone plan: โ‚ฌ10 p/m
  • Gym membership: โ‚ฌ40 p/m
  • Museum card or cinema card: โ‚ฌ30 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 โ‚ฌ500 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 โ‚ฌ68 per month membership during the term.

We recommend host families to pay 50% of the flightโ€จโ€จThere is no legal rule in the Netherlands about who must pay for the au pairโ€™s flight ticket.However, as the cultural exchange is a win-win and the pocket money is not high, itโ€™s 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.

Note: For candidates from the Philippines the host family covers both arrival and departure flights.

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. For candidates from the EU, it is often not necessary to open a local bank account.

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 2โ€“4 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 โ€œAftercare packageโ€ at moment of rematch, we will find them a new candidate without extra costs.

Our screened au pair candidates

Leah (23)

๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ธ Spain

Hi! Iโ€™m Leah, a 23-year-old from the beautiful Spain. I love calm mornings, long walks, and preparing healthy meals. With a background in psychology, Iโ€™ve always been interested in child development and supporting kids as they grow. Becoming an au pair is more than travel for meโ€”itโ€™s about forming real connections, offering stability, and creating a home away from home for the children I care for.

Maria (23)

๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ท Brazil

Oi! My name is Maria, Iโ€™m 23 and from vibrant Sรฃo Paulo. Life for me is about energy and connection. I love playing soccer, painting, and making music. Iโ€™ve helped care for my younger siblings and cousins for most of my life, and I know how to bring fun and responsibility together. Iโ€™m hoping to be part of a warm, open-minded family where we can learn from each other and share beautiful moments, big and small.

Emily (23)

๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช Germany

Growing up in the beautiful German city Hamburg, I developed a deep love for nature, creativity, and family traditions. Iโ€™m 23 and spend most of my free time painting, grabbing coffee with friends, or baking (my cinnamon rolls are a hit!). I want to become an au pair to experience a new culture in a meaningful way and support children in their everyday lives. Iโ€™d love to bring calm, creativity, and a bit of German sweetness to a home abroad.

Dinda (20)

๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต Japan

Hello! Iโ€™m Dinda from Japan, 20 years old, and currently studying early childhood education. I love playing the piano, reading fantasy novels, and making origami. Iโ€™ve always felt a strong connection with children, and becoming an au pair is a way for me to combine my passion for childcare with my dream of living abroad. Iโ€™m especially excited to share Japanese traditions and learn new ones through daily life with a host family.

Selene (24)

๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ด Colombia

ยกHola! Iโ€™m Selene from Colombia. Iโ€™m 24, full of energy, and always looking for ways to spread joy, whether thatโ€™s through dancing, cooking, or outdoor adventures. Iโ€™ve spent the past two years volunteering at as a scout leader at a local childrenโ€™s center and realized how much I enjoy being a positive influence in kidsโ€™ lives. Iโ€™d love to be part of a fun, busy family where I can bring laughter, structure, and lots of love into the home.

Mary (19)

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ USA

Hey! Iโ€™m Mary, 19 years old and originally from the Pacific Northwest in the U.S. Iโ€™m a storyteller at heart and I love photography, journaling, and finding the little moments that make life beautiful. Iโ€™m also a Christian, and my faith is an important part of who I am. It inspires me to live with kindness, patience, and a heart for helping others. Iโ€™ve always had a natural connection with kids and hope to bring both creativity and calm to a new family. Becoming an au pair feels like the perfect way to learn from another culture while making a real impact in childrenโ€™s lives.

Ashley (21)

๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆ South Africa

Hi there! Iโ€™m Ashley from South Africa, 21 years old, and always up for an adventure. I spend my time hiking, singing, and getting crafty with DIY projects. Iโ€™ve worked with children in various community settings and love how much they teach us about joy and resilience. Iโ€™m really looking forward to joining a family abroad where I can help create a fun, safe, and encouraging environment for the kids to thrive.

Ana (22)

๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฝ Mexico

Hi! Iโ€™m Ana from Mexico, 22 years old, and passionate about arts, dance, and learning languages. Iโ€™ve always loved working with children and have spent a lot of time tutoring and leading kidsโ€™ dance workshops. Iโ€™m excited to become an au pair because I want to grow personally and professionally while building a bond with a host family. Being part of a childโ€™s everyday life by helping with homework, making crafts, or just sharing a laugh, is something I truly look forward to.
