Welcome Letter to the Au Pair

Hello! We are a friendly family of 4 living in Devon (SW, UK), who would warmly welcome you as part of the family.
We are very keen to give you the best experience of the UK and show you all that Devon has to offer. There will be many opportunities to join us on family adventures in and around the county. We would therefore love an Au Pair who is friendly, out-going and keen to be involved with family activities.

We have been a host family for 3 wonderful au pairs over the past 3 years, from Spain, Germany and New Zealand. We have enjoyed it so much, learning about new cultures ourselves and how to provide the best au pair experience. Our au pairs have been truly happy with us. We still keep in touch and they love to see how the kids are growing. Testimonials from these au pairs are available on request.

Do get in touch as we would love to welcome you into our family :)

Job Description

I just need a helping hand during the week. Both in terms of looking after the children and light housework. You will not be expected to work at the weekends and will have plenty of time off each day. Your hours might be slightly different each day, but will not exceed 30 hours per week. We can discuss whether you are happy with all of this. I want it to be the best experience possible for you too!

You will be expected to babysit in the evenings once or twice a week, but this will count towards your weekly hours and will always be discussed in advance. We are happy to be flexible if it clashes with plans you have

Childcare duties: This will mainly be entertaining and playing with the children as detailed above, but also includes some basic meal prep and supervision and help with their daily routines such as getting dressed, bathing them and putting them to bed.

Housework duties: Only minor housework is expected of you. This may take the form of helping with cooking/clearing up after meals, helping with laundry, putting away toys or doing some light hoovering. Details can all be negotiated.

Family Description

We are a traditional, English family who love living in Devon. I am a teacher and my husband is in the Royal Marines. We have a nearly 4 year old son called Benjamin and a 2 year old daughter called Molly. We live in Exeter and enjoy all the city has to offer, but also like venturing out for walks on Dartmoor national park and local beaches. We enjoy camping trips, bike riding, rock climbing, paddle boarding and surfing to name a few. Our perfect evening is slightly more relaxed and consists of good home-cooked food, a nice glass of wine watching telly or playing a board game! My husband works away during the week so I could do with an extra pair of hands to look after the kids.
