Hi all, there are loads of Facebook groups for aupairs in London and our aupairs tend to organise meetups via these. Most of the aupairs then set up their own Whats App groups. I will PM you all as we have a new aupair from Germany too.

Au pair in London - aupair au pairs nanny nannies

Hello all! Our 19 yr old aupair arrives from Slovenia tomorrow. We had arranged some local English classes for her habit unfortunately they aren't running anymore. I know she's joined some Facebook groups but would love to network her in with some local friends. Her English is excellent but it would be great to have a network. Could you possibly include me in any of these meet up chats/whatsaoo groups olease? Thabks! Rachela

We have had au pairs for 5 years and they have always been taught by the same great English teachers. The course is in Penge (you can catch a bus from Dulwich Library) and assessments are tomorrow 11th September and Tuesday 12 September at 10am at Beckenham Baptist Church. Our au pair is going tomorrow. If you au pair is interested, look up Learn English SE London / Bromley on Facebook - or telephone Sarah on 0208 851 3916 - or email her on [email protected]. Our au pairs have all been really happy with the courses, saying how interesting and fun the teachers made the lessons, and have all passed their FCE or CAE English exams (there are two courses for two different levels, each course 2 hours, 2 mornings each week).

Parents- I am wondering whether I could float an idea to you guys and get an idea of interest? I'm thinking of starting a meet up/ language skills group for au pairs in the area. I'm 24, SE Ldn native and newly qualified TEFL teacher. I have worked as a nanny abroad too, and I know it can be quite an isolating experience. I suppose the group would be an exchange of sorts; I'd gain teaching experience, attendants would improve their English and get the insider track on the area for 20 somethings? And we'd all make friends of course!

Any thoughts welcome!

Hello


I know this post is very old but i was just wondering if anyone is still looking for meet ups for new au pairs? Our new Brazilian au pair has just arrived and we are trying to get her set up in the area. We are Herne Hill, if anyone local is around and could show her the ropes!


Thanks


Cath

    • Hi there, We are currently having issues with our current nursery in ED, and are looking for an excellent childminder or nanny locally. We live on Melbourne Grove so can walk within a 5-10 min radius. Ideally to start in January 2026 please. We have a 14 month old girl. Any recommendation for other childcare providers would be appreciated too! Thanks a lot, Jojo

    • Second time Aria has completed a plumbing job for me and both times he’s been polite. Communicative, kept to time and completed the job. He’s very helpful and tidy as well. First job was ball valve in water tank, not easy at all. He and his team were fantastic. This time kitchen tap cylinders replaced and tap tightened.  Much appreciated, Aria thank you.
    • Thought others may be interested to help a local community centre help others.    My bank account offers roundup and it’s been growing all year. As well as treating myself or putting it towards a train ticket to see my family I’ve made a donation to the Albrighton. They can use donations at any time but I hope my donation will go towards the Christmas hampers.    Can you support them so they can provide Christmas hampers?   https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/albrightoncommunityfridge?utm_id=1&utm_term=M22JKQb6W   A donation of £50 will pay for a hamper to feed a family over this Christmas period. A donation of £30 will pay for a hamper to feed someone living on their own over the Christmas period.
