Benefits of a placement through a BAPAA member agency

An Au Pair who is placed in collaboration with a member agency of the British Au Pair Agencies Association enjoys a long list of 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 an Au Pair to vetted families in Britain. Many agencies look after the same host families year after year; they know the families well and this ensures successful and safe placements.
