EduCare Au Pair Program

Requirements
Au Pairs participating in the EduCare program have the same requirements as Standard Au Pairs which includes the following:
  • Between 18-26 years old
  • Speak English
  • Previous child care experience
  • High School graduate or equivalent
  • Complete goAUPAIR's screening and training.

Educare Au Pairs work 30 hours per week instead of 45, so their weekly stipend is lower than Standard Au Pairs.

Child care Responsibilities
EduCare Au Pairs may only provide care for school-aged children.The EduCare program is designed for families with school-age children. EduCare Au Pairs are not permitted to care for children under the age of 2 even if they have experience caring for infants. EduCare Au Pairs may provide care for children up 18 years old.

EduCare Au Pairs are permitted to care for children with special needs provided they have prior experience, skills or training and the duties are clearly stated to the Au Pair prior to her arrival.
Education
EduCare Au Pairs complete 12 credit hours at an accredited post-secondary university during their year instead of 6. The contribution from Host Families is higher because of this. Au Pairs extending for a second year have an additional educational requirement.
