  • A student in the field of child care, psychology, teaching is a bonus

  • Au Pair Experience is essential, most of our families will not accept Au Pairs without Au Pair experience!

Being an au pair can be the most rewarding job in the world, but it is also exhausting and draining, and we will only accept candidates who are truly passionate about children, have patience, and understand children’s needs. You are being entrusted with other people’s children and it is very important that you treat these children with the same love and respect that they get from their parents. If you are just looking for a job to earn some extra money or pass the time then au pairing is not for you.

If you think you have what it takes to be an au pair, please download the au pair questionnaire, fill it in then please send it together with your CV to info@justlikemom.co.za for JHB and kzn@justlikemom.co.za for KZN.
