The absolute best way of finding out about how a host-family is would be to ask the previous au pair. They have been there for a year and so they know how the family works and how everything runs in the house. I have made a list of the top 10 questions you as the new au pair, au pair who is extending with a new family or an au pair who is in rematch and trying to find a new host family needs to ask the previous/current au pair so that you can be prepared for your au pair experience. 

The host-family will only give you the contact details of the current au pair or previous au pair after they have spoken to you on your Skype interview and they are interested in you.  I hope that you enjoyed the video. Leave a like, comment down below a question that you would want to know from the previous au pair and consider subscribing for more helpful au pair videos.  Have a great day! 😄

With the stay at home order there are millions of children who now have to do school from home. Whether you call it homeschool, e-learning, distance learning, online school, its all the same thing. It is a tough time for teachers, parents, au pairs and children alike but with the right preparations in place we can be successful with learning from home.

the Bropair makes a parody of WIRED's Autocomplete Interview and answers the internet's burning questions abou au pairing. This is the most comprehensive au pair interview and answers everything you have probably wanted to know about the cultural exchange program. What does an au pair do? Which is the best agency? How much money do au pairs make? Jarryd answers all of these questions and much more!

I asked my followers on Instagram and Reddit what advice for host family they had regarding the au pair bedroom and bathroom and what would make it the best au pair room ever and this is what they had to say. You guys give the best au pair advice, thank you for sharing with me! 🙌💗

All au pairs are nervous and excited about their new adventure so it would be best try and accommodate them as much as possible. If you treat them well then it will be a better experience for everyone from the host kids to you the host parents. As a host family you want your new au pair to be as comfortable in your home as possible. This is going to be their new home for the next year or even two years so putting in the extra effort into making their bedroom and bathroom a pleasant experience will go a long way with them. They will also be able to brag to their new au pair friends that they have the best host family.
