For au pairs, families & agencies — worldwide

Less admin. More time.
Your hours sorted.
Your overtime paid.

The extra hours nobody was counting, turned into a claim your employer approves in one tap. Plus a free marketplace, country guides and a pay calculator.

next family

Two things.
Both built for au pair life.

Use one or both — the app to run the job you have, the marketplace to find the next one.

The app

You worked the hours.
Get paid for all of them.

Most au pairs don't lose money because anyone is unfair — they lose it because nobody was counting. Half an hour here, a school run there, an evening that ran late. NannyTank counts as the month happens, so nothing depends on what you can remember four weeks later.

Log your day in 30 seconds

Tap a day, set your start and end time, add the trips you drove. Save your regular routes — the school run, piano, pickups — and they're one tap each after that.

Overtime counts itself

Set your normal hours once. Anything past them is flagged as overtime automatically, and every kilometre is multiplied by your agreed rate. No mental arithmetic, no rounding down because you weren't sure.

The claim builds itself

At month-end it's already done: hours, overtime and fuel in one tidy Excel claim, emailed to your employer. What used to cost an evening and a spreadsheet now costs one tap.

Your employer approves for free

Approving a claim happens on a one-tap link in the email you send — no account, no payment, ever. If the family wants the ongoing view as well — the same calendar you see, payslips with their deductions worked in, the shared schedule and the kids' diary — that's their own 14 days free, then one payment. You both stop arguing from memory, because you're both looking at the same numbers.
