the word “au pair” is a french term, which means “on par” or “equal to”, denoting living on an equal basis in a reciprocal, caring relationship between the host family and the children. an aupair will typically be a young woman and sometimes a young man from a foreign country who chooses to help look after the children of a host family and provide light housekeeping. the aupair is given room and board and is typically paid a weekly “pocket-money” salary. aupairs generally stay with their host family for one year.

au pairing is living with a foreign family, taking care of the children while the parents are working.
