FOR
OVERSEAS STUDENTS
Students
from all over the world are finding out about this
perfect money saving solution
so they can come to Australia to study.
Be part of an Australian family, exchange 15 hours of
child-minding and housework for your accommodation and meals, and
experience the Aussie lifestyle.
"Live the English Language"
If you are on a working holiday visa you are also
eligible to be a Demi Pair. The required stay with a family is 3
months. Life long friendships are formed.
The Demi Pair program was created to give everyone
the opportunity to study in Perth, Western Australia. To come to
Perth and Live the Language is far better than doing a
language course in one's own country.
"Live the Language", and experience the Australian
lifestyle.
PERTH, the city in Australia with the most sunshine,
and lower cost of living.
Demi Pair Placements
are available for applicants at intermediate level or higher who
have some child care experience. An additional student visa has to
be obtained from immigration (A$55) once you start school – this
will be organized for you, before being placed with a family.

A letter from Perth
Demi Pair
Dear quolkids.com
Perth Demi Pair was
developed as part of the service to overseas students who wanted to
come to Australia to study at the International Language Academy in
West Perth, it was seen as giving the ones with limited funds the
opportunity to come to Perth and study the English language. (School
hours are 9am to 3:15pm)
IT’S A WIN WIN
SITUATION FOR STUDENTS AND FAMILIES ALIKE
A family offers a
room and board to a student at no cost and in exchange the student
will give 15 hours of child minding and household duties to the
family. A minimum stay of 12 weeks and could be up to 26 weeks.
Total cost to the
family is a $50 administration fee to place a student with them.
A variation to the
very popular “AU PAIR” of
England and Europe.
This Demi Pair
programme is also popular with single Mothers and shift workers and
two income parents who race the clock to work full time and look
after their home and children.
Families must have
a police clearance to host a Demi Pair and the student has
references and also has the thorough investigation of the
Immigration before a student visa is granted to them.
Upon arrival they
stay with me and I can ascertain the personality and type of person
and explain the requirements of the family they are going to. This
time also allows them to recover from jet-lag, settle in to the
school, establish friends and familiarize themselves with Perth.
At all times I am
available to both the student and the family and I maintain contact
with the student via the Academy.
With your approval
I would like the opportunity of this service becoming known to
families, I am sure they would welcome some help and support without
the expense of paying for domestic help and baby sitters. During the
11 years I was with Camp Quality I became fully aware of the needs
of the families in caring for the siblings and running their home.
I look forward to
hearing from you. I truly wish to be of assistance as I am fully
aware of the pressure placed on the Mother at this time.
Yours sincerely
Heather Smaellie
Perth Demi Pair
