An Agency fee is payable in accordance with our Schedule of Fees
Au Pair Extraordinaire acts as an introductory Agency, and not as the employer of the au pair. We will email you an employment contract on request, and you, as the family, will become the employer. As the employer, you will be responsible for all statutory obligations relating to the employment, such as PAYE and UIF. Exact duties of au pairs differ in each household, but generally include:
- nurturance, care and supervision of your children
- fetching from school and taking to extra-murals, appointments etc.
- supervision of and assistance with homework
- playing fun and stimulating activities
An au pair’s salary / hourly rate will depend on their age, previous experience and childcare courses completed, as well as the number of hours worked each week. Please contact us for guidelines in this regard.
