Welcome to napoweb.nl, the website of the Netherlands Au Pair Organization.
The Netherlands Au Pair Organization (NAPO) was founded in May 2004 during a meeting with multiple Dutch Au Pair Agencies. NAPO’s primary objective is to care for the needs of au pairs and their host families and to facilitate in the creation of uniform and standard industry norms.
The NAPO is a branch organization for au pair agencies and other related organisations. Comfortable with all market areas, NAPO is able to provide targeted support to its members. Furthermore, on behalf of its members NAPO provides a strong lobby towards government and other political bodies. Market knowledge, expertise and vision are at the base of our position.
The NAPO has drawn up an admission policy to which each individual agency must adhere before being able to become a member of NAPO. These conditions safeguard host families and au pairs and warrant a proper code of conduct for each member.
Moreover, NAPO recognizes different types of members: regular full voting members, candidate members who cannot vote (organizations who are not member of NAPO for at least 2 years) and non-voting members (usually organizations who are in some manner involved with au pairs and host families, i.e. insurance companies or travel organizations).
NAPO is an independent body which sees to it that all members of NAPO adhere to its code of conduct. Questions and or remarks can be sent to the NAPO secretariat at info@napoweb.nl.
In summary: The agencies and organizations that carry the NAPO logo are proud of their work and have earned the right to carry it.
