Working as an Au Pair in New Zealand
Au Pair New Zealand - New Zealand Au Pair
An Au Pair in New Zealand has the same right as that of an employee working in the country. No wonder, hundreds of foreigners opt for becoming an Au Pair. However, they must promote their skills in handling kids and highlight their sincerity for the job to get a perfect host family and satisfactory job profile.
Sincere and Eligible Au Pairs have a Lucrative Career in New Zealand
Generally, Au Pairs are foreigners who have entered New Zealand on a Working Holiday Visa. Many foreigners working as an Au Pair stay on in the country for a year or so. Others stay in New Zealand on Student Visa where they study and also take up a job of an Au Pair.
As an Au Pair in New Zealand, you would ideally have to work in-house for 40 hours per week and take away a net compensation of 200 or more Dollars each week. Tasks are well-defined in a checklist which an Au Pair must seek prior to signing an agreement with the host family.
Promoting Yourself as a Perfect Au Pair
Getting an ideal host family that rewards an Au Pair handsomely for the services is difficult unless the Au Pair promotes his or her efficacy for the job. An Au Pair link agency may provide a medium where the Au Pairs can highlight their basic qualification, mode of communication, work experience as a nanny, and knack in dealing with kids or babies while working as an Au Pair. Some essential documents which must be included in Au Pairs’ portfolio are:
- Background of the Au Pair, such as the host country, native language known, basic qualification, other skill-sets, and similar information.
- A letter to the “host family” which highlights why the Au Pair must be chosen as the ideal nanny for the kids and why he or she wants to stay in New Zealand to work as an Au Pair.
- A detailed paragraph on hobbies, interests, and aspirations must also be highlighted in the letter. This letter must be hand-written and informally written to the parents of the kids.
- Details about previous work experience as an Au Pair works wonders in getting a suitable job. For instance, if you know driving you can be asked to drive the kids to school or hobby classes. If you have hands-on experience in dealing with a new-born, you would get calls from new mothers. Au Pairs with special experience get extra incentives for their skills.
- Useful references are good for getting attractive jobs as an Au Pair. Make sure you provide the contact numbers so that the host family can verify your credentials.
- A doctor’s certificate and character certificate from police are necessary to get jobs quickly.
Finding a Perfect Host Family
To find a perfect host family, an Au Pair can enroll to Au Pair link agencies that provide links to host families whose requirements match with the skill set of the Au Pair. The link agencies also provide useful tips to create a portfolio that attracts genuine host families.
Remember, Au Pairs come under the purview of New Zealand Employment Law and as such, they have rights to Minimum Wage Act, Holiday Act, and other employment obligations.

Consider this: a college student from a non-English speaking country arrives in New Zealand for the first time to study in the country and etch out a prosperous career. However, with no knowledge about cultural expectations and information about an affordable accommodation in the country, the student is at a loss.
In such situations, the student can work as an Au Pair or Demi Pair in a household that require a helper to look after the kids. Part time work like this is usually common in New Zealand.
A Perfect Landing
Many students require undergoing training in English so that they can attain fluency in the language to study further in the country or sit for an English testing examination. For the first 3 months or so, these students require enrolling in an English preparatory course, course to promote general English communication, or course for entering into an academic program.
Staying with a New Zealand family allows the students a secured place to live just after landing in the country. While they interact with the host family, they learn social etiquettes, communicative language skills, social cues, and lot more information about the country.
Part-Time Work
Studying English courses in New Zealand colleges are not a full-time activity. During the rest of the time, the students often work – as an Au Pair or Demi Pair.
The Au Pairs get free accommodation and meals offered by the host family. They may get some pocket expenses as well. Even if they don’t get any monetary perks, they get opportunities to go on holidays with the host family. They can also concentrate on courses they will study in the future by finding out job opportunities, study options, and admission criteria.
Work of an Au Pair
Generally, Au Pairs are hired to look after kids at home. If you have a knack in childcare you will be a perfect candidate for the job. The chores include baby-sitting, childcare, taking school kids to school or tuition classes, helping them with their daily chores, and entertaining them at times.
The hours of work and job profiles are delineated when you sign the contract with the host family. This can be around 20 hours per week – if you work part-time. You may also be asked to assist in housekeeping chores, such as helping in the kitchen, watering the plants in the garden, or checking mails, and so on.
Demi-Pairs are part-time child care workers who study during their off-duty hours. If you are looking after big kids, you can be hired to help them complete their homework. Your job is less tiring and during the free time, you can study a course in English, business, or accounting. Generally, you will not be paid for your work. The incentive will be a secured accommodation with free meals and free-time to utilize on your studies.
College Students Working Part Time
There are many other students who work part-time to gain work experience. If you are studying nursing, childcare, or vocational course, you may require a suitable work experience to start your career.
