Demipair / Aupair Program
Demi Pair/ Aupair Gold Coast in Australia
A Demi pair is a part-time Au Pair, normally on a 12 month Working Holiday Visa or Student Visa.
Demi pairs usually start from around 6:30 to 8:00 am and are then free to do what they want until around 14:00 pm daily.
They will then commence working as a demi pair in the afternoon.
Demi pairs live with a family and provide 20 hours of work per week in exchange for their accommodation and meals.
An Au pair is also called a Live-in Nanny.
This is more suitable for people on a working holiday visa as the hours are longer.
An Au pair earns an allowance by helping with the housework and taking care of the children while living with the family.
What the family provides, normally, is your own room (in the host family’s home) plus 3 meals a day, as well as a small wage.
The pay depends on the workload of the family. You can earn from $ 180 to 300 per week.
There are also families that will offer up to $ 400 per week depending on their needs.
The average help time is between 30-40 hours per week.
Au pairs do require a higher level of English and a drivers license may be riquired for pick ups and drop offs at school.
4 reasons why you should choose being a Demi Pair in Australia.
01
Language benefit
Living and working with an Australian family can have a lot of benefits, such as improving your English conversation skills.
The more you interact with the family, the faster your English conversation skills will improve, and the faster your conversion skills improve, the more confident you will become in interaction with others.
02
Share house vs Demi pairs
Choosing a share house where only people from your country live may be comfortable, but it is the same as living in shared accomodation in your own country.
As a Demi pair you can learn from the family such as up bringing, customs, food and lifestyle.
03
Second family
Spending 3 months with a Demi pair family and getting to know them can sometimes make saying good bye difficult.
Children get used to the Demi pair and beg them to not leave, the host mother and father might ask you to extend your time with them.
It’s good to have a relationship where you can stay connected, even after you have finished.
04
Saving Money
Yes, money, when travelling money can become a big concern, and what matters most when you are travelling or studying abroad is the cost of living.
Rent and food expenses will always be the biggest expenses, as they are paid for and bought daily or weekly.
However, if you choose being a Demi pair, you can save on both of these, which gives you more money to spend on yourself or fun things to do in Australia.
Who can become a demipair / aupair?
A DemiPair/Au pair is not a fully qualified nanny.
