Here’s what some of our Au Pairs say:
“Getting a job as an au pair through Dream Nannies was a great experience. They were extremely responsive; I received a phone call the same day that I applied for a job online! I was paired with an amazing family with the most beautiful little girls. I accepted a 4 month placement but ended up staying 8! At the start of my placement Dream nannies contacted me to ensure I was comfortable and happy and offered meet ups with other Au Pairs living in the area. Every member of staff I have spoken to is so friendly and knowledgeable. Thank you Dream Nannies for introducing me to my family away from home”
Eleanor – Au Pair from the UK, Aug 2020
“I had no idea where to start looking for a family to work for overseas but when I searched and Dream Nannies came up, I had a browse and got in touch and it was so straightforward from there. It has been the most amazing time and the family and I which I’m matched with are perfectly suited. Thank you Dream Nannies ! “
