  • We're talking about who should be paying for WHAT. When it comes to au pairing, families vary so much in what they offer that it's worth making sure you're not being taken advantage of.
    However, once you're an au pair, it's not worth comparing yourself to other - try to negotiate a new situation if it's not working for you instead.
    If you're unsure of what your host family should be paying for, check out Au Pair World's A-Z section. Here, you'll be able to find relevant info on the country you're working in - it's also worth sharing with your host family too. www.aupairworl...
    We've spoken about money before, so check out that video, here:
    • Let's Talk Money - How...
    We are only speaking for France in this video! To be an au pair in Paris, you should expect to receive from your host family;
    - Pocket money between €266 and €320 per month. However, we recommend choosing a family who pay at least €80 per week.
    - Groceries or money for food. Your au pair allowance won't stretch to include feeding you as well! This is important - make sure you ask your host family about the food they'll provide you with before signing the contract.
    - Transportation - ie. your Navigo pass. It's especially great if your host family sign you up in advance too so you're all set once you arrive.
    - Health Insurance - this is a big one!!! Check out our previous video about health insurance to find out more. But, it's an uncomfortable conversation which is definitely worth having.
    • WHO PAYS FOR HEALTH IN...
    - Airfare - this completely depends on the family, however, Au Pair World suggest that host families reimburse their au pairs once they arrive. You may find that the majority of families don't pay.

    - Cellphones - if you're lucky, your host family will buy you a decent data package which covers your Instagram needs AND your phone calls home. However, we both had au pair burner phones which barely had any data.

    Hi! I just have a general question about asking about salary and pocket money when talking to host families. I get into good conversations with some families and they explain basic responsibilities and accommodations, but I do not know how to bring up the topic of how much they pay a week. I do not want to sound rude or greedy by asking early in the conversation, but I also need to know so I can plan accordingly :)

    I do not understand why you have to pay for the kids with your pocket money! The family give you the money your pocket money is yours!

    I’m thinking about applying to be an au pair and i have a question! Is it normal to just be an au pair for a short amount of time like 2-4 months or is more of like a year type deal?

    Is it possible to pay for things in cash in Paris? For groceries, entrance tickets, in cafés/restaurants, etc? I went to Amsterdam last year and discovered that they require you to pay with a credit card in most places, even including some supermarkets, so I just thought I‘d ask if I need to prepare myself for something similar in Paris? Love your videos btw! :)

    Hey! Do you know anything about host families paying for your french course? I recently signed up to become an au pair next year, and I thought you could study for free but after further investigation it appears not hahaha so I'm curious about them at least paying the French course and I can see about university later.

    • @aupairohparis6083
      @aupairohparis6083  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi there! A lot of families do pay for it, I guess just take a look into your contract or if you're traveling with an agency, take a look at their policies!

    • @helenebrezt
      @helenebrezt ปีที่แล้ว

      @@aupairohparis6083 it is not a question of policies or agency, it is a question or law. The au pair must pay for the courses in France. Some families would pay but this is not mandatory. Get informed!

    Hi, I'm in need of some advice. I'm from Australia and I want to Au Pair. I want to stay for max 8 months but I have a dilema. In Australia, we don't have an Au Pair Visa (that I'm aware) so the legal way to go overseas and work is of course a Working Holiday Visa. The problem is that visa is valid for 12 months- but only allows max of 6 months working (out of 12 months stay) and max of 3 months with the same employer. this means that I can only Au Pair for a max of 3 months, which seems too short a time to me and the chances of a Host Family going thru the whole process with me for only three months... (might not be sufficent time to connect with kids and family blah blah blah). I've seen other Australians offer to Au Pair for much longer than 3 months but idk how they can. Hope this makes sense :)

      Hey, I know you asked this a while ago, but I thought I'd reply anyways. I'm not sure which Working Holiday Visa you're applying for, but if its the subclass 417, then the original condition was that you can't work with the same family for more than 6 months, but they recently changed that. Just google "working as Au Pair in Australia for more than 6 months possible?" and you'll find the new ruling.
      I'm also going to Australia in 2 weeks and I know that the whole process can be really confusing, so please feel free to message me if you have any questions. :)
