Canada does not offer an official au pair program, however, au pairs can legally work in the country under the Live-In Caregiver Program.
The Live-in Caregiver Program is a special program to bring workers to Canada for live-in work as caregivers when there are not enough Canadians to fill the available positions. A "live-in caregiver" is someone who provides unsupervised care of children, the elderly or the disabled in a private household.
Successful applicants receive an employment authorization allowing them to work in Canada as live-in caregivers. After two years of employment, program participants can apply in Canada to become permanent residents; they may be granted permanent resident status provided they meet certain requirements. Note: the two years of employment must be completed within three years of the caregiver's arrival in Canada.
