The payment

The payment

In return for the help offered to the family, the au pairs, in addition to free food and lodging, receive a payment. The amount of the payment varies according to the host country and the working hours. In some countries, there is legislation in effect in this respect, while in others it is common sense.

Remember! It is not necessary to consider the au pair stay as a job, but rather it is a cultural exchange. That is why, in most countries, au pairs do not have the status of an employee but are a member of the family. In the same way, for that reason they do not receive a salary but a pay. You will find more information in our au pair philosophy.
