Who are we?We are a non-profit association of Spanish au pair agencies. The only one with national and international recognition.
At AEPA we work to defend the au pair program as a cultural exchange program, to promote it, to achieve greater professionalism in the au pair agency sector and to seek dialogue between existing au pair agencies, as well as to promote good practices in the sector. |
All associated au pair agencies are legally registered, follow the Association's Code of Conduct and have experience in the sector, which enables them to promote this cultural exchange program with guarantees of professionalism, ethics and quality; and in this way ensure that the cultural exchange between families and au pairs develops in the safest and most satisfactory way possible for all its participants.
