Childcare & Parenting Advice

Oh - I've been meaning to share this for a while actually, but haven't got around to it seeing as I'm pregnant and that's my reason for attending the message forums here. However, I thought I should mention I own a nanny agency. We have Au Pairs who can work up to fulltime hours for $150-180pw which includes 2 evenings per week of babysitting so you can enjoy a night out with your partner!!

Website is: www.nznannies.org.nz

We also have a blog where I post articles on parenting issues and advice and a lot of our parents really find it valuable:

Thanks for the question. No the Au Pair is expected to pay tax - it's $150-180 gross.

It's affordable for some families who pay about the same amount in daycare fees (many do) and would prefer their child in home-based care. Plus we have Early Childhood Educators that work alongside the Au Pair...
