How to choose the right Au Pair. 

To choose the right Au Pair is not an easy job.   The internet offers many possibilities, but also lots of frauds or hidden data.  At AupairHunter we recommend that you to take your time and do not apply the “first come, first served” tactic.   Experience through us to focus on making the right selection instead of a hasty decision, that needs a lot of compromise afterwards.

AupairHunter offers different tools to make your selection.   Please try to be realistic about your needs.  Also be specific and not only answer "not relevant".    Give it another thought and specify your preferences.  If the result is not the desired one, make a new selection and widen your options.

We have created a concept, including many detailed selection criteria in order to help you make a tailor made selection, finding the right Au Pair that really fits your needs.  We also provide for our members information how to choose the right Au Pair.  Furthermore we recommend you exchange several emails,  telephone conversations and watch eachothers video in order to get to know and understand each other better.

Please consider that Au Pair and host family are going to live together for a while.  To make it a good experience for both, the “chemistry” has to be compatible.  Do not feel ashamed about asking some delicate questions, but also try to be polite without offending anybody.

Be honest about your information,  follow our Code of Ethics, and the data given, but if you should feel cheated by a particular member please help by notifing us about the problem.  With your help we can prevent repeated abuse.

AupairHunter recommends you to ask for references of previous host families, or schoolteachers with contact details.  This can help you verify the information received.
