Choosing an au-pair
When choosing your au-pair, please take into consideration that, realistically, ALL your requirements may not be suitably met. It is much better, in our opinion, to view the au pair file as a whole, rather than pick up on one or more negative points.
Any issues of concern can be raised with us and when these issues have been explored, a decision can be made as to whether the au pair would be suitable for your family.
Au pairs frequently answer `No`...to questions such as..` Will you accept a family of a different nationality? `Will you accept a single parent family?` `Will you accept other locations other than London and surroundings?` ` Will you accept a family who has a child with special needs?` ...but when family details are shown to the Au Pairs...they usually tell their agent that if the family is friendly and welcoming ...then the above issues are not so important to them. Similarly, au pairs do not always tick ALL household chores. Au Pairs are clearly told that they will be expected to do light housework...so if some of the boxes are not ticked, the au pairs will probably need more guidance and instruction on how to do these particular chores.
