At The Little Au Pair Agency we offer friendly and personalised support as you search for the right Au Pair for your family. The perfect choice for families looking for peace of mind and support throughout their Au Pair search and selection process.
We work with carefully selected European Partners to find the best Au Pair candidates, helping to reduce the amount of time you spend shortlisting applicants. We only ever send you details of screened candidates who meet your family’s needs.
The Little Au Pair Agency is a small family run agency based in South East London. Whilst we do place Au Pairs throughout the UK, the majority of our host families are based in London and the South East of England. We only work with a small number of Host Families which means we offer a friendly service tailored to your childcare needs. We are passionate about helping busy families with their Au Pair search, and with first hand experience of being a Host Family can help answer your questions along the way. We are a full member of the British Au Pair Agencies Association and comply with BAPAA Au Pair programme guidelines.
Our website provides lots of information about hosting Au Pairs and more about us but we understand, particularly for first time Host Families, it can be easier to talk with someone. For an informal chat, please call us on 020 8462 6041.
We look forward to hearing from you and hope to be able to help with your childcare search.

A helpful reminder from the British Au Pair Agencies Association (BAPAA) - au pairs can be on duty for a MAXIMUM of 30 hours per week to qualify for cultural exchange and tax free status. In fact, many of our au pairs will be on duty for 20-25 hours/week, with just a few hours wrap around childcare per day, and very little or no household duties. The category formally known as "Au Pair Plus" with duties up to 35 hours/week was abolished in the UK over 1 year ago.Polite reminder to all #aupairagencies other #childcare agencies, #hostfamilies and au pair self matching websites in the UK .

Your happiness, safety and security is of paramount importance. We strongly recommend to use a proper recognised agency to arrange your Au Pair Placement, a British Au Pair Agencies Association - BAPAA or IAPA member. Make sure whichever agency you use adheres to the up to date Au Pair Programme, conducts reference checks on the host family, asks you for references and correct supporting documents. Check our BAPAA website for full details. BAPAA agencies help throughout your placement with social events, guidance and an emergency helpline to call in the rare instance that anyone might need to. Be happy and be safe, it's better with BAPAA!
