The Au Pair SA website provided you with instant access to details of au pairs matching your requirements who are currently looking for an au pair position.

Also, we do not charge you or the au pair a placement fee for any placement made through the website.
No, the only agreement will be between you and the au pair that you hire. The terms of this agreement are entirely up to you, however we are glad to assist you with any questions that you may have in setting the agreement up.
The au pair's salary is determined by agreement between you and your au pair. The salary should be based on the geographical location, experience and qualifications of the au pair, how many hours per week the au pair is required, how flexible the au pair is required to be with their times, whether any driving is required by the au pair, etc.
