How it Works

Initial Consultation

We begin with a personalised consultation to understand your family’s unique needs, preferences, and values. This helps us identify the ideal qualities in an au pair or tutor that align with your goals for your child.

Screening & Matching

Our team carefully screens each candidate, verifying their qualifications, experience, and character to ensure they meet iDevelop’s high standards of integrity, kindness, and excellence. We then select candidates who best fit your family’s profile.

Personalised Introductions

After identifying potential matches, we arrange introductions, allowing you and your child to get to know each candidate. This step ensures comfort and compatibility, fostering a connection from the start.

Final Selection & Placement

Once you’ve found the right fit, we guide you through the placement process, supporting both you and the au pair or tutor to create a smooth transition and successful partnership.

Ongoing Support

Our relationship doesn’t end with placement! We provide ongoing support, checking in regularly to ensure that your family’s needs are continually met.

We are here through the journey

Welcome to our Tips & Guides section, where we provide helpful resources to support you in making the most of your au pair or tutor placement. Whether you’re welcoming an au pair into your home for the first time or helping your child build a strong connection with their new tutor, we’ve got you covered with expert advice and practical tips.

Preparing Your Home for an Au Pair

Create a welcoming environment by setting up a comfortable space for your au pair. Clear communication about house rules, routines, and expectations from the start will help establish a positive, cooperative relationship.

Building a Strong Tutor-Student Relationship

Encourage your child to share their learning goals and challenges with their tutor. Open dialogue ensures a focused, personalized learning experience, making tutoring sessions more effective and enjoyable.

Tips for a Smooth Transition

Transitions can be challenging, especially for younger children. Introduce the new caregiver gradually, share your child’s daily routine, and discuss your family’s values and preferences to ease the adjustment period.

Effective Communication with Your Au Pair or Tutor

Regular check-ins and open communication are key to a successful placement. Share feedback and address any concerns early on to ensure everyone is comfortable and aligned.

Supporting Your Child’s Learning Journey

Work with your tutor to create a study plan that meets your child’s needs. Encourage a consistent study routine at home, and celebrate your child’s progress to boost their confidence and motivation.
