If you love working with children and have had a bit of experience in the past, then working as an au pair might be the ideal opportunity for you!

Au pairs get to spend up to a year living and working with welcoming families in a number of different places - most often in the USA and Europe. As well as earning money and getting the chance to study and travel, au pairs also gain a unique insight into another culture as they literally become 'part of the family'. It's the best of all worlds...
