GreatAupair is actually not an agency, per se, but a database that connects potential au pairs with host families, and vice versa. You aren't paying an agency, you're paying to be able to look through hundreds of families yourself, to see if there is someone you might like to work for. GreatAupair also recommends specific agencies who can help with the legalities involved with working as an au pair, but is not an agency itself. Good point.

I've actually looked off and on at Great Aupair's website, because they have au pairs from all over the world looking for work, as well as families looking for au pairs. Now that I have two children of my own and another on the way, I am often on the look-out for an au pair of my own! Great suggestion.

During college I interned for a firm that represented GreatAupair, and the feedback was always so positive. They're really great at matching families and au pairs... I even considered signing up to be a nanny after graduation. If you’re looking for an international agency, I highly recommend GreatAupair.com.
