At Smartaupairs & Nannies we work with both traditional au pairs as well as qualified childcarers, predominantly in live in roles. We also offer vetting/network & course access to privately recruited candidates.
Hi! We are all well and hope you are too? Lisa is brilliant and has settled in so well already! It feels as though she has always been here and the kids love her already!! We are super happy! Thank you to you guys for finding us another wonderful au pair!
- Host Mum, Long Term Returning Customer, Surrey
We are extremely happy! She’s absolutely lovely and a perfect fit for us. We have already spoken about her staying two years which is something we’d be very happy with.
- Host Mum , Long Term Returning Customer, London
Ines has been an absolute god-send during this difficult and strange period. We are so fortunate that she decided to stay with us and our house was definitely a more calm, organised and relaxed place because of it - we will all miss her terribly!
- Lucy, Host mum in London (During COVID)
Julie & her husband are both doctors, and they have hosted au pairs for several years through Smartaupairs: "As busy consultants in the NHS having an au pair has been invaluable for helping with our childcare needs. The flexibility it offers is so important for us and the close relationship formed between our au pairs and our children is a joy to behold. Our life would be so much more difficult to manage without an au pair. The benefits for us and the young women who come to be part of our family are immense."
- Julie, Host Family in Yorkshire
We would like to thank you for all your help over the last 7 years. We are still in touch with most of our au pairs and are very pleased that the process, through you, has been so successful for us as a family. We've signed the petition as we are well aware that we could not have coped without the au pair program and I know there will be many other families out there in the same position. We wish you and Smartaupairs every success for the future

Since I have joined Smartaupairs, my very busy life has become so much easier! I have been a Smartaupairs customer/client for 4 years now and I would not change a thing. The webiste is clear and easy of use. And when comes the time to find the next au-pair, I love the fact that it just takes a simple phone-call to any of the lovely staff for the whole process to start: Smartaupairs pre-selecting the candidates, uploading all new information onto the website.... and Voilà! We are in business. Thanks to Smartaupairs, 4 lovely girls from Germany and Switzerland have joined our family and become my new daughters. Believe it or not, but we are still in contact and 2 of them have come back for visits. I intent to use Smartaupairs for many years to come and I would wholeheartedly recommend them to any prospective parent. My two daughters and I chose just one candidate and we had a couple of chat with Elena online through Skype
- Natascha, Host Mum in Kent
Very happy with the level of service. Now hosting our 6th au pair form the agency. Only experienced a couple of minor difficulties but have welcomed your support, which has been prompt and professional. I know our au pairs have benefitted from the support and guidance they have received from your team too
- Chiquita , Host Mum in Gloucestershire
We have used other au pair companies in the past and I can honestly say that Smartaupairs was the best experience we had. You found us a fantastic au pair and prepared us and our au pair for the stay. Everything was very well organised and we had a fantastic experience. Thank you
- Freida, Host Mum in London
We have had 3 au pairs through you over the last 2 years, we have been very happy, have recommended you to many people already, but who knows if they have contacted you! a happy relief to find an au pair after about 3 conversations, rather than trawl through endless Gumtree ads and then find that 50% of the girls don't even come to the interview which was more than frustrating in the past. thank you, we will be back!
- Beth, Host Mum in London
We have tried other au pair agencies/websites but always come back to Smart Aupairs due to the reassurance that they are only contacting us with the best people who have been fully checked out in their own countries. We also prefer the fact that we have support and backup once our au pair starts
- Amanda, Host Mum in Kent
I found the service provided excellent overall. Particularly when I had concerns about an au pair I was able to have a helpful and supportive discussion with the agency about how to address the concerns and resolve the situation. I felt the support offered was insightful and relevant and we would have no hesitation using smartaupairs agency again.
- Kirsten, Host Mum in London
I have relied on Smartaupairs for the past eight years; they have continuously provided me with an efficient reliable service. I have found the staff, especially Chloe, really helpful and understanding. There have been a number of instances where we have needed a new au pair quite speedily and once again I have found the speed of re-activation and the forwarding of applicant details outstanding. I frequently share the agency contact details with any friends who are considering an au pair joining their family
