Theresa Hofbauer
Theresa moved to NZ, into our family, at a chaotic time when we were moving house. After her first week she was already settled in as a member of the family and the kids were loving having her around. She not only adapted really well into her new lifestyle, she adapted amazingly well into ours.

Saskia, Saskia. Where to begin? As I sit here on the couch crippled in pain from recent surgery, drinking a coffee you just made for me, I think to myself, wow. You truly are an amazing au pair!

Theresa Prigan
Theresa joined our family in November last year & we have never looked back. Little T as she is known in our home is our first au pair so we were totally nervous about having someone join us but I can honestly say that the moment she stepped into our home it was comfortable. Fast forward nearly 5 months and I have no idea how we managed without her.

Annika
When we interviewed Annika over a year ago now we knew straight away that she would be a perfect fit for us. She was the first applicant we interviewed and we decided to follow our instinct and sent her an offer the same night of the interview. It turns out we were right, she has been exactly what we were after.

“You will never be completely at home again, because part of your heart always will be elsewhere. That is the price you pay for the richness of loving and knowing people in more than one place.” – Miriam Adeney

New Zealand is full of adventures, adrenaline and heart beats. And as an Au Pair, you will definitely meet at least one of these things during your time in New Zealand. I like New Zealand just because of all the things you can do.

Being an Au Pair helps you discover a new way of seeing your life. The children literally change the way you see the world. They teach you patience, listening, to stay calm, and you become more mature through your responsibilities.
