Au Pair Needed Urgently - Start Date End of May


Recommended Posts

We are a young professional family living in Honor Oak Park (SE23). My 6-year-old son attends Fairlawn Primary School on Honor Oak Park Road and my daughter attends Nursery / Childminder depending on the day in the local area. We are looking to secure someone urgently from the end of May 2019 for up to 1 year (minimum 2 terms).


Our au pair has a bright, modern double room to herself with ample storage in our loft. We consider her a member of the family and she eats most of her meals with us, some of which she offers to cook, which is a lovely bonus. In addition to food and board, she receives ?100 per week pocket money when the children are with their mother and father (for the weekends & holiday time this is not paid but everything else remains the same). She will be included in family activities so that she gets the most out of her time with us, but it?s totally up to her if she would like to participate.



Our au pair's day starts at 8am when she gets the children dressed and ready for school. They have breakfast at home and then they are taken to school/nursery or childminder. The time between 9.30am and 3.15pm is her own to study or socialize, and she's back on duty to collect the children from school and care for them until 7pm when I get home. The hours after school consist of 3 blocks of helping with homework, educational play, and dinner/getting ready for bed. The weekends are her own, save for the fact that we ask for 2 nights per week babysitting which may include a Friday or Saturday night. She helps me by doing her own and the children?s washing and generally being conscientious in our home, helping me to keep it clean and tidy. We ask that she doesn?t invite overnight guests to the house.


We will only consider a female au pair and already have a right to work as an au pair in the UK.

    • Evri left a parcel for her on our doorstep. If anyone knows her could they (or preferably Esther) DM me. Thank you!
    • Hello East Dulwich families 👋 I wanted to introduce myself to the community. I’m a professional family & wedding photographer with 14+ years of experience, and I split my time between the US and London throughout the year. I’ll be based in London for the coming weeks and would love to photograph more local families here in East Dulwich. My approach is very relaxed and natural — no stiff posing, no pressure — just real connection, movement, and the beautiful everyday moments that tell your family’s story. I work especially well with kids and parents who feel “awkward” in front of the camera (which honestly is most of us!). Sessions can take place at home, in the park, on your favourite street, or anywhere that feels meaningful to you. The goal is to create images that feel like your life — not a photoshoot. If anyone has been thinking about documenting this season with their children, I’d love to connect, answer questions, or simply share examples of my work. No pressure at all — just happy to be here and meet some neighbours. You can see my work here: https://bluesparkphotography.com/family/ (use the contact page on the site to send me a message if you're interested!).  
    • I don't! But I've also taken to calling myself David, as it seems to shorten the odds of achieving something in life. It's not King Dave, Dave Lloyd George, Dave Hockney, Dave Bowie or Dave Hasselhoff is it? And I'm not sure Michelangelo would have had such success if he'd called his sculpture 'Dave'.
    • I think there is still a shoes/clothes recycling bank outside of North Dulwich station.
