About Us

Australian Demi Pairs provide a fantastic option for over 18 international students on a budget that are wanting to improve their English. Demi Pairs provide 15 hours per week of child care and house work in exchange for meals and accommodation with a family. It is a fantastic cultural experience that offers the student a safe home environment while they study. Our Demi Pair program is available in Brisbane, on the Gold Coast and in Melbourne.

Living with an English speaking family helps to improve their language skills, reduces homesickness and allows the student to experience the Australian culture and lifestyle while working in a safe and comfortable environment.

Our Team

The team at Australian Demi Pairs are highly experienced in arranging and supporting Demi Pair placements for international students. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact any of our helpful staff.
