The quality of the Grannys is fantastic. They all come with live experience and some have been abroad already in volunteer projects and as Granny-Au Pairs just as well.

If you find a suitable Granny, please direct them straight to us for comprehensive advice. We have a website in German for interested Granny-Au Pairs, but of course all others will just receive the same excellent service from Au Pair Assist.

Here is an excerpt about the new trend:

A fantastic trend has recently evolved from Germany, spreading through Europe. It is the wish of more mature ladies to have finally an experience they missed out on in their young ages: Granny-Au Pairs.

More and more families are looking for a mature Au Pair. An Au Pair aged 40, 50 or even 60 years offers numerous advantages: there is generally more experience than a young person can provide, frequently more understanding and considerateness in handling problems, and mostly a readiness to help others without being asked to.

Granny-Au Pairs do not enter into any employment relationship and are not subject to the strict regulations and protective criteria applied on young Au Pairs. They travel as private tourists and negotiate the conditions for staying with their host family independently. Consequently this arrangement is significantly more budget-friendly for host families who do not have to pay any costly agency fees or defined allowances. Furthermore, entry and visa requirements are less complicated for Granny-Au Pairs as they are traveling as tourists.

Terms and conditions for a stay will be negotiated independently by the Granny-Au Pair and host family. Granny-Au Pairs would be an ideal solution as temporary replacement for young long-term Au Pairs or basically fill the gap during the months from March till June, where there is usually a shortage of young Au Pairs.

We have a close cooperation agencies who can source a suitable Granny-Au Pair for your family, while Au Pair Assist will provide our service for you to ensure that all paperwork is done and the Granny settles well into your family.

Please always refer your Granny Au Pair to Au Pair Assist when searching yourself.
