This is not a genuine au pair or employment opportunity, it is a scam. The scammer is not really living in the UK; he actually sent this email from Nigeria, as his IP address proves: 41.138.164.52 - Uyo, Nigeria.

His telephone number, like all telephone numbers which begin with +44 70, is not a normal UK telephone number, but a 'redirect' number which redirects all calls to a mobile phone elsewhere in the world. In this instance, the number will redirect all calls to the scammer's mobile phone in Nigeria.

This scammer has stolen photographs from a photographer's website, and pretends that these are photos of his own family. These photographs were also used by the scammer calling himself Alex Smith; you can see this here:
