Benefits of a British Au Pair Association Agency

All families who choose to find an au pair in collaboration with a member agency of the British Au Pair Agencies Association enjoy substantial benefits. All BAPAA members work closely with reputable partner agencies all over Europe to make sure an au pair is both vetted and prepared in their own country prior to departure to the UK. A BAPAA agency assists with the careful matching of au pair to vetted families in Britain. BAPAA’s Agency Code of Conduct means that agencies have to supply your family with sufficient personal information about the applicant, including references, a medical report and a police report.

BAPAA member agencies can offer some of the following benefits:

• Free welcome book for the au pair
• 24 hour emergency helpline
• Use of the exclusive BAPAA “find a friend” website
• Excursions and introductions to other au pairs
• Discounts on entry tickets to UK attractions and theme parks
• Discounts on Pediatric First Aid courses
• Support and advice throughout au pair stay from a professional agency
