An au pair is a young person from the UK who wants to travel to Russia or CIS countries and work 25 or 37,5 hours a week and have a lot of free time. An au pair often have a degree in the childcare and teaching field but have no experience. An au pair can be a student who wants to see the world or a single lady who raised her own children and wants to help others. Junior Nannies are British passport holders who want to travel and learn a new language. English Nanny has a variety of options to offer.
In this very case hiring an au pair and hiring a Russian nanny is alike. The main focus is on a positive attitude and a perfect record of the candidate. They are all interviewed by qualified psychologists with due diligence. The agency helps to get a CPR certificate and DBS-checked.
It’s possible to hire an au pair for a year or three month period. In the summertime, the number of applications increases as university students start looking for a temporary job on holidays.
