Suggested Au Pair Remuneration

0 – 12 hrs worked per week:	R60/ hr
13 – 20 hrs worked per week:	R55/ hr
21 – 30 hrs worked per week:	R50/ hr
31 hrs or more per week:	R45/ hr

    

This is a guideline only and the final salary is entirely up to you. Au Pairs generally earn between R40 - R70/ hr depending on the hours worked as well as the Au Pairs experience. Most families choose to pay a monthly salary and this can range from R2 000 - R15 000 per month depending once again on hours worked and the Au Pairs experience.

 

Normally this hourly rate does not include travel. You can choose to build it into their salary or ask them to keep a log book and reimburse them at the end of each month. Payment for travel is usually reimbursed at AA Rates. This only includes travel while at work, and does not include travel to and from work so it can usually be worked into the salary.

Before choosing an au pair you need to decide what salary you are willing to pay. Remember though that these are your children, and that high calibre au pairs are more expensive but are then more experienced and qualified so you definitely get what you pay for. Your children’s well-being & sense of security is more important than saving a few hundred rand, so consider this before deciding on a salary.
