Au Pair Resources

What is an Au Pair?
An Au Pair is someone from overseas who lives with a host family for up to two years. Au Pairs provide childcare in exchange for room and board and a weekly stipend.
What is the difference between nanny and au pair?
A nanny and an au pair provide childcare. Nannies are typically paid an hourly wage or salary and don't live in a family's home. Au pairs are live-in caregivers who are paid a weekly or monthly stipend. Au pairs come to the United States on a cultural exchange visa through an au pair agency.
What is the average cost of having an au pair?
While the cost of hosting an au pair varies, most families will pay an average of $20,000 a year. Additional costs associated with hosting an au pair include food, a cell phone, access to a car, and more.
Do au pairs do housework?
Usually, au pairs do housework related to caring for the children in the home. For example, they may cook meals for the children, tidy a child's room, organize toys, or sort a child's laundry, but they are not housekeepers.
