Au Pair Training

A BETTER-PREPARED AU PAIR STARTS HERE.
Welcoming an au pair into your home is exciting — but it also means trusting a young person with your children, your routines and everyday family life.
Au Pair Training helps families prepare their au pair before arrival.
Our training gives au pairs practical guidance in childcare, child safety, communication, cultural adjustment and everyday host family expectations, helping them understand their role before they become part of your household.

HELP YOUR AU PAIR START STRONG
The first weeks of an au pair placement can shape the entire experience.
Au Pair Training helps reduce uncertainty by preparing au pairs for situations they are likely to encounter in real family life.

Training topics include:
• Childcare and child safety
• Understanding children's needs and behaviour
• Communication with host parents
• Family routines and household expectations
• Cultural differences and adjustment
• Boundaries and responsibilities
• Emotional support for children
• Stress, conflict and difficult situations
• The first days with a host family
• Everyday life as an au pair

PRACTICAL PREPARATION — NOT JUST THEORY
Our lessons focus on realistic situations au pairs may experience while living with a host family.
The goal is simple: help your au pair understand what is expected, communicate more confidently and arrive with a stronger foundation for family life.

TRAINING THAT FITS AROUND THEIR SCHEDULE
The Au Pair Training app is where enrolled au pairs complete their training.
From their phone, au pairs can:
• Watch their training videos
• Complete chapter quizzes
• Work through the course step by step
• Follow their training progress
• Access chapter-specific learning materials
• Complete the final assessment

Au pairs can learn at their own pace before departure or during the beginning of their placement.

MORE THAN JUST LESSONS
Host families can follow their au pair's progress through the Au Pair Training website.
Chapter-specific handouts provide useful information that families and au pairs can refer back to during everyday life.
Quizzes reinforce the material covered throughout the course, while the final assessment helps confirm that key information has been understood.
After successful completion, the au pair receives a certificate of completion recognising their achievement.

FOR HOST FAMILIES
Au Pair Training is designed to support one of the most important parts of a successful au pair placement: preparation before expectations become misunderstandings.
Give your au pair practical knowledge before they arrive, so your first weeks together can focus on building trust, routines and a positive relationship.

FOR AU PAIRS
If your host family or agency has enrolled you in Au Pair Training, use this app to watch your lessons, complete your quizzes and continue your training.
Registration and account setup take place through the Au Pair Training website. An existing Au Pair Training account is required to use the app.
