Our Education Programme

2017_Early Learning

Working as an Au Pair 123, Whiz or Assist, we'll provide you with an exciting and interactive early learning programme - allowing you to inspire your host family's children to discover their place in the world through experiences which become a Learning Story.  As part of the Au Pair Link family, you'll have access to:

Child Portfolios and Communication Books

Child Portfolios and Communication Books are the perfect way to keep your host family up to date with your children's progress, as well as record anything that might happen during the day.  By writing Learning Stories (filled with pictures and mementos), you'll create a unique story which will be treasured by your host family and their children for years to come!

Weekly playgroups

We run weekly playgroups in all locations, giving you the chance to meet with your Family & Programme Manager and other au pairs to share experiences and feel supported while you are here.

Regular home visits

Each month your Family & Programme Manager (a qualified ECE teacher) visits you in your host family home to provide you with advice, educational resources and chat with you about how things are going with the children.

Au Pair & Child Outings

Experience life in your local community as part of our monthly au pair & child outings!  Whether it's a visit to the zoo, a local beach or the fire station - you'll enjoy the company of other au pairs while creating some special learning memories with your children.

Professional learning

We organise bi-monthly training sessions for au pairs, so you can stay at the forefront of the childcare industry while working on our programme.  These sessions are a fantastic opportunity for you to learn more about childcare, nutrition, positive behaviour guidance and much more!

Educational resources

We also provide you with our free educational resource kits to assist your child's learning and understanding of the world around them.  Our resource kits include books, music and toys with an educational flair - based around children's interests (e.g. art, music, dinosaurs, the alphabet).  These are a great way to add value to your host family children's learning experience!
