Established in 2016, The Au Pair Club is a global childcare platform built for families, caregivers, and agencies who care about children.
We started with a simple goal: to make childcare training easy, accessible, and truly affordable.
Since then, we've built a Job Portal and Community that gives everyone a safer, purpose-built space for childcare connections. Think of it like Facebook, but 100% for childcare.
Make connections, share advice, post jobs, save CVs, and build your childcare network, all in one secure space.
Hire Childcare, not an agency
Your family will change, and so will your childcare needs. From tutors and babysitters to nannies and au pairs, The Au Pair Club grows with your family.
Instead of paying an agency R15,000 to R25,000 in placement fees and waiting weeks for childcare, you can connect directly with certified caregivers whenever you need them.
- No placement fees
- No agency delays
- Trained candidates ready to help
- Direct contact with your caregiver
