My Family Au Pair App
Sign documents digitally — no printer or scanner
In our app, host families can digitally sign key placement documents. That means no printing, handwritten signing, and scanning again — the process stays traceable, low-paper, and much faster.
Part of our full service
Digital signature is built into our structured workflows: you see which documents are due, sign conveniently on your phone or tablet, and we move faster to the next step — such as visa and arrival.
