Au Pair Placements in the UK

Our host families are spread across the UK. We do our best to match your requirements to those of our host families to ensure a great partnership. Whether you prefer to stay in a city, town, suburb or countryside, we will make every effort to find you a suitable family. Unfortunately, due to visa restrictions, we are only able to accept Au Pair applications from those countries eligible for the Youth Mobility Visa Scheme.
This visa is for young people aged 18 - 30/35 years from participating countries who would like to experience life in the United Kingdom. The countries on the scheme currently are: Australia, Canada, Japan and New Zealand.

Application Forms - if you currently reside in the UK with a work permit we would be happy to help find you a wonderful au pair or nanny position - no charge for those already in the UK.


In order to ensure a successful placement it is our policy to ask you to complete our Application Forms in detail so that your host family is fully aware of your credentials. Please complete the Applicant to the UK form and we will get in touch with you at the earliest opportunity to provide you with other documentation which you will need to complete. Insurance: All applicants travelling under the Youth Mobility Visa must comply fully with the guidelines of this visa. Please refer to:  https://www.gov.uk/youth-mobility
