Pocket money

In exchange for his / her help offered to the host family, an au pair is entitled to pocket money in addition to free board and lodging. The amount of pocket money depends on the host country and the number of working hours.

Our recommendation:

The monthly pocket money of the au pair should be split up and be paid out on a weekly basis.
