Why we built AuPairly

My husband and I tried an agency first. We paid a big fee and still ended up with candidates who weren't a good fit. So we tried it ourselves, posting an ad and handling everything on WhatsApp. We were flooded with replies from people who clearly hadn't read a word of the ad, and had to hand out our number and address to total strangers just to find out if they were worth talking to.

AuPairly is the middle ground we wished existed. You stay in control of your own search, but every profile is reviewed, and the verifications that matter, ID, background, references, are right there when you need them.
