Au Pair Community

Your instant network in Australia

Moving across the world is exciting - and a little overwhelming.

The Kokun Au Pair Community is a free, private and moderated Facebook group where au pairs across Australia can connect, ask questions, share experiences and make friends.

Many au pair communities are only available to au pairs placed through a particular agency. We believe every au pair deserves access to community, support and reliable information, regardless of how they found their host family.

Think of it as your mum-away-from-mum, plus a group of people navigating the same adventure alongside you.

A community that starts before you arrive.

Moving to Australia should feel exciting - not lonely.

Join before you arrive and start connecting with other au pairs, asking questions and learning what life in Australia is really like.
