Membership options and benefits
TheBestAupair have created a simple set of
membership options and benefits for both families and au pairs.
Free Membership
We designed TheBestAupair so that all registered users can
create a profile, search for compatible families or au pairs, read
our information and support and determine if TheBestAupair is right
for you!
Our free membership even gives you the ability to send a secure
message that expresses your interest in an au pair or family!
TheBestAupair recommends that you create a free profile, search
to find the right family or au pair, and if you do find one or more
au pairs or families that you are interested in, then you can
upgrade to a premium membership to obtain their contact information
and progress from there.
** Helpful membership tip: Generally speaking
au pairs register for free, and families pay for the premium
membership to contact the au pairs that they are interested
in. An au pair should pay for the premium membership if they
want to proactively contact families, or you want access to our
Download Centre which contains a lot of useful documents to help
interview your host family, perform a reference check, and follow
our step by step guide to being an au pair from idea to arriving at
you new host family location!
Premium Membership
The premium membership has the following key benefits:
Access to direct contact information:
Premium families can see direct contact information for au pairs
so you can pro-actively contact those you are interested in.
Premium au pairs can see direct contact information for
families so you can pro-actively contact those you are interested
in.
Access to the Download Centre
You will have access to a significant amount of information that
we have compiled through years of having au pairs ourselves.
This information includes extensive interview guides, reference
check documents, step by step guides, daily schedules, au pair
contracts and other information.
** Note there is useful information in the download
centre for both families and au pairs.

PowerSearch
TheBestAupair created PowerSearch for those users that want to
find an au pair or family quickly. As our website grows in
popularity, there will be 10s of thousands of users registered on
our site (we hope!).
PowerSearch family and au pair profiles are rotated on the
homepage - providing you with increased profile coverage!
PowerSearch will ensure that your profile is returned higher on
the search results and hence increase your chance of being selected
by a great au pair or family!

** Helpful PowerSearch tip: as the
number of users on our website grows, both families and au pairs
may be interested in purchasing PowerSearch for a period.
PowerSearch works similarly to Google Adwords - it places
your profile at the top section of the search results, increasing
the chance of you receiving an "I'm interested" message from a
family or au pair. Great families and au pairs who have a lot to
offer get selected very quickly, so PowerSearch helps you to become
the one that gets contacted early.
