We are looking for an Au pair to be a big sister or brother to our child and to become another member of our family, Though we had an Au pair before but she just recently traveled back to her country due to the Death of her Mother.
We got to lovely kids, Donald is 4 and Lisa is 5 years old..My son likes to go to the parks so as my daughter once a week and we would like you to take him.We will require you to take care of our son for about 30hrs a week. You will have weekends free and we will pay you £600 per week pocket money which we will give to you every Friday.Our residence is very open and near the city and there are other au pairs close by. There is also a good language school and we will encourage you to go for lessons there to learn English if you wish to.

There is also a bus stop outside our house with direct access into the city center.You will have your own bedroom and your own bathroom either live in or live out fully furnished , plus desk phone and computer system with internet.We do not have any pets and we do not smoke.We need an Au pair to start with us soon and stay until at least 6 months or more. We will need you to drive our second car if you can and we shall arrange some driving lessons for you when you arrive. You may use this car for taking the children to school, going to your English classes and for your private use.Do tell us when you will be free to start up duties with us..We are a fun young family looking for a kind hearted fun Au pair to mix in with our family..
We shall be paying you the total sum of 3,000 Great Britain pounds and a pocket fee of 600pounds every week for you to get some stuffs you need for yourself..Hope the salary is okay with you..
