Canberra is one of the more challenging places in Australia to find childcare.

Remove the stress of childcare pick ups, and speak with us today about the benefits of an Au Pair for your family.
AIFS Au Pairs are primarily from Germany, Sweden, France, UK, US, Canada, Japan, Taiwan and the Netherlands although we alsp place Peruvian, Thai and Chinese Au pairs. Becoming an Au pair and Canberra is a great option for any Au Pair with easy access to parks, shopping and social activities. We have many Au pairs in the Canberra/Queenbeyan area who are attracted to the locale as well as the relative short time to head to Sydney or the snow when they have a few days off.
An Au pair sometimes also known as a live-in nanny will care for children up to 35 hours per week in return for pocket money, board and an immersive cultural exchange experience. As many Canberrians use cars, most Au pairs will expect to drive during their placement to take youre child/ren to school or after school activities. AIFS Au pairs normally have a drivers lisence and you can check their driving history. AIFS' orientation also cover road rules although we suggest that any unique Canberra road rules are explained by your family.
An Au pair in Canberra is far more cost-effective than most childcare options in the area.
