Money, money, money, must be funny, in a host parent's world. Hey au pairs, today's video was inspired by ABBA and the countless au pairs who ask us HOW MUCH is the right amount to be paid as an au pair??

Well, to cut a long story very short - French law stated (for 2016) that au pairs should receive between €264.00 and €316.80 per month.

However, we feel that anything below €80 per week will be a struggle to enjoy Paris on - sure your basics are covered but being in a city where a coffee costs €5 isn't much fun if you can't spend any cash.

Just remember, you're being in paid in other ways. So, if something seems too good to be true - such as being paid €500 per week - then be suspicious!

Our top tip: A host family who want to treat you badly and pay you extra for it aren't worth the time or effort - go with a family who treat you nicely and pay €80!

Remember, you should be working a maximum of 5 hours per day and 30 hours per week.
