Which au pair suits my family?

After you register as a host family, we would like to make an appointment, entirely without obligation. During the intake meeting we get to know you and take stock of your wishes. It is very important that we all understand what we are going to do, and that we are clear about what we can expect from each other and from the au pair. Taking an au pair into your home is no small thing. It is an intensive partnership that brings many enjoyable and promising changes. An au pair costs on average 850 euros per month. During the intake meeting we discuss the full procedure and the fees.

After the intake meeting we propose a number of selected candidates. You choose two au pairs and we discuss the choice together. If we agree on the choices, video calls follow between you and the au pairs. Often there is a clear click between you and one of the candidates. Then there is a match, and we finalise the partnership with the au pair and with you. Of course we take care of all further formalities.

The arrival of the au pair is the start of a fantastic time, which is why we ask our families to make it a real celebration and to pick him or her up at Schiphol with the children. It is important that the au pair feels at home straight away. After resting and settling in, you go through the family handbook you received from us, so the au pair immediately knows the family’s routines. Au Pair Exclusive will welcome your au pair right on arrival, because we want to know that the arrival went well. After that follows the invitation to the workshop: meeting our team in person and making friends with other au pairs right away.
