About Online matching websites

Everyone that I know, including myself when i became an Au pair myself many years ago, used a physical au pair agency. It’s very fast and convenient and does not hold the risks that an online agency has. Some of the advantages include re-homing you if things don’t work out with your family and you will be able to find other au pairs in your area through the agency. The agency will do background checks on all families and will find the family for you.

A physical agency is the safest option and will have its benefits and I found that you can also register with them online was a lot more convenient for me. It’s also free to do it online so that’s a huge bonus. And you get to be as picky as you like.

This chapter is dedicated to helping you make the right choices to find your host family online. We are proud to say that the best online agency in Canada is Au pair Canada . Because we offer all the services any other au pair agency offers, but free of charge to au pairs. Our staff is always happy to help you through the process, and offer you support once you arrive. I will also give you a quick safety briefing about online profiles because you need to be a little more cautious when doing things like this online.

This is the most important part of finding your family. Your profile is your advert, so market yourself well.

I know a lot of people who really want to just get out there so they try and be the dream au pair who can do anything and expects nothing. This is the worst idea ever. Yes, it may work and you will get offers from families left, right and centre but this will cause problems for you later on.
