We currently have an au pair but from September, both children will be at primary school full time and we would only need around 16-20 hrs help a week (although more in school holidays). I am thinking of having a Demi-pair I.e a student who lives here and helps with the childcare as a mutual arrangement (no pay unless over the usual hours). I don't know anyone who has this arrangement so would welcome hearing about your experiences!
How do I find a nice student who would be interested in accommodation in exchange for childcare help fitting around their studies?
Thanks
