Guidance on building an au pair-to-family networking site.
- by Philip Kidd
I'm building a website for an au pair agency business that will connect au pairs to families around Europe.
I know nothing about website building, HTML etc. so I'm using a wysiwyg editer (weebly).
How I would like the site to function:
Families upload their information into profiles
Au pairs do the same
families can view a limited part of an au pairs' profile until they pay a deposit
After deposit is payed, all au pairs' profile information becomes open to families
Families can order au pairs and confirm their order with another payment
payment must be made before 'order' is confirmed
By 'order' I mean full communications become open between the family and the au pair they have 'ordered' as well as travel information being sent to another agency
the site needs to be linked with a bank account (e.g paypal) and another agency, who will look after the flight bookings etc.
A website already exists for this business however it just contains information on the business and application forms - if the site becomes fully automated it will relieve a lot of strain on administration in the office (dealing with applications, travel information etc.)
