urrey Au-pair Agency

Welcome to Surrey Au-pair Agency!

Whether you are a family looking for an au-pair, to help with the childcare and household chores, a young person eager to improve your English language skills and experience the British way of life, or you would like to spend that gap year living abroad, you have come to the right place!

We are your friendly, dynamic specialist recruitment agency, based in the heart of historical Guildford in Surrey.

We introduce au-pairs to families across Surrey, the neighbouring counties, as well as the rest of UK.

The Agency is run by Mary Gosling, who, as a former au-pair/mother's help, experienced first handedly that every family is unique, every family has got different needs and services have to be tailored accordingly.

With years in the industry, Mary has got to know the European au-pair community , built valuable relationships with agencies across the globe and established Surrey Au-pair Agency, which within its first six month of existence has been accredited by Best Bear ( official agency for screening and vetting British Au-pair agencies).

Mary says - "Here at Surrey Au-pair Agency, we believe that a truly successful placement requires a mental shift from the "cheap childcare" paradigm. While, undoubtedly, taking part in the Au-pair program is much more affordable than paying for your boarding or conventional childcare, in order to become a fully enjoyable experience,we must make sure that we see and apply the Au-pair program for what it was initially designed for:

A wonderful opportunity for both family and au-pair to gain an insight into the customs of a different culture!"

Surrey Au-pair Agency works with partner agencies from

France, Spain, Italy, Germany, Australia, New Zealand,

Hungary, Romania, Czech Republic & Bulgaria, but au-pairs from all over EU are welcome to apply !!
