Discover the perfect au pair from Spain

Your au pair from Spain can help with household tasks that are directly related to the children. This typically includes preparing meals, doing the children’s laundry, tidying bedrooms and play areas, and helping with school drop-offs or activity transportation. While they aren’t responsible for general housework, their support with child-focused chores is a key part of the program.
