What Our Members Say
“I truly appreciate my experience with AuPairly. What I really like is that they respect the qualifications you already have. Unlike other agencies that require you to redo courses before helping you find a job, AuPairly allows you to use the certificates and experience you’ve already earned, like my childcare certificates. Of course, some things, like First Aid, need renewal from time to time, which is normal but it’s reassuring that they value the training you already have.”
Mirriam
Nanny, Pretoria
“AuPairly made finding a nanny so easy—great quality profiles and I had three strong matches almost immediately. Super straightforward to use and actually felt efficient. Such a breath of fresh air compared to chaotic WhatsApp groups.”
Candice
Family, Western Cape
“AuPairly has been an incredible platform for me to start my journey as an au pair. As a recent high school graduate, the process was straightforward and made it easy for me to showcase my skills and connect with local families in Rustenburg. It’s a great tool for anyone looking to build their childcare experience”
