Domestic Help Guide in Auckland<\/h2>\n

New Zealanders pride themselves on their DIY \u2013 or Do It Yourself \u2013 mentality, so domestic help, especially live-in help, is not the norm in Auckland. However, as Auckland is the country\u2019s largest and richest city, and is home to many foreigners, plenty of nannies and au pairs, housekeepers<\/a> and babysitters, gardeners, handymen and more can be found. Agencies are listed in the yellow pages and at\u00a0http:\/\/www.yellow.co.nz<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
