Hi Anissa, yes, these are scams.

This paragraph is also used by a scammer pretending to live in the USA:

We expect an au pair who is willing to have fun with our kid and enjoy
her. But also to help guide her in right and wrong.we want somebody
who is willing to work with us to bring the right atmosphere to our
home for the au pair and the family. There will be some light
housework and cooking. There will be a car available for the au
pair's use. we really just want my kid to feel safe, loved and happy
when we can't be there.

Also, citizens of very few countries are able to go to the UK as an au pair. Please see these links:

If you are not from one of the listed countries, or European, you cannot become an au pair in the UK.

Hello queeny, and welcome to ScamWarners. Thank you for posting this scam mail. Yes, scammers use many different fake names - but sometimes, like in this case, they might use the same email address for their fake travel agency. Sometimes they use the same phone numbers for more than one scam also; so it is always worth googling email addresses and phone numbers as well as names and addresses which are given to you.

Would you post the email address that the fake Stella Krajewski used? Then when other au pairs google this, it will show in the search results and they can read your post and also realise that it is a scam.
