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.

    • I was amazed to see a young nuthatch crawling headfirst down a the trunk of a tree in my garden to bully the great tits and blue tits off the bird feeders yesterday.  Didn't expect to see one this far from the woods.
    • some titles are "protected" ie you have to have certain qualifications and be registered with the supervising council https://www.hcpc-uk.org/about-us/who-we-regulate/the-professions/ Dietician is registered and protected Nutricionist is neither. Anyone can claim to be a nutricionist or chiropracter etc  
    • It didn't occur to me to ask. No idea if dieticians are employed within the NHS. It is just one line of enquiry among others. The GP mentioned it, not me.
    • I thought the most they sell in terms of hot food at londis is like pastries and sausage rolls and for hot drinks its like costa coffee but its always a convenience store. Doesn’t look too bad in my opinion considering that shop has been closed down ever since i moved here
