Cost of Au pair vs. nanny. Au Pairs: Generally more budget-friendly, with estimated costs ranging from $8,000 to $12,000 annually.This includes room, board, stipend, and educational allowance.
According to the official Au Pair program in the UK, the participant should receive a salary of about 90 GBP per week, which makes a total of 360 GBP per month.

A minimum of $180- 210 weekly pocket money for 30h & $210-245 for 35h, depending on experience and duty hours. Own private, comfortable bedroom and own bathroom or shared with children. Two days free time per week, usually weekends. Welcome pack, Au Pair contact lists, monthly meet ups.Ina addition to travel expenses to/from their home, I paid £90 pw in London plus Oyster card for 20 hours per week, 2 primary age children. No gym membership or other extras. In retrospect, I would have paid more pw and no free Oystercard. If the au pair is staying longer than 6 months, you will need a visa, yes. Good luck, OP.
