Au Pair/ Demi Pair in Australia
Queensland College of English Brisbane

Au Pair
Au Pair is a program that places students with local Brisbane host families that seek help with childcare or household tasks. In exchange for working 12 hours per week with the family, a student receives accommodation and meals.

To be eligible for the au pair program students must:

• Be between 18 and 30 years old, in good health, mature and responsible
• Speak English at a minimum of Intermediate level
• Be able to show that they have some experience in childcare and household duties (such as cleaning, ironing and cooking)
• Provide references (An international driver’s licence, though not compulsory, would be an advantage)

QCE Brisbane aims to match au pair students and host families according to the requirements of both parties. The student is expected to participate as a member of the family and assist with the tasks as required. The host family ensures that the student has a private room, with a proper bed, a wardrobe, a study desk with a chair and appropriate lighting. Host families also provide three meals per day and the opportunity for the student to participate in their family events and social activities.
