try this:

Declare @stringToSplit varchar(max)='date=10/10/2000|age=13^date=01/01/2001|age=12^date=02/02/2005|age=8^date=10/10/2000|age=13^date=01/01/2001|age=12^date=02/02/2005|age=8^date=10/10/2000|age=13^date=01/01/2001|age=12^date=02/02/2005|age=8^date=10/10/2000|age=13^date=01/01/2001|age=12^date=02/02/2005|age=8'

DECLARE @YourTable table (RowID int, Layout varchar(max))
INSERT @YourTable VALUES (1,@stringToSplit)

;WITH SplitSting AS
(
    SELECT
    RowID,LEFT(Layout,CHARINDEX('^',Layout)-1) AS Part
   ,RIGHT(Layout,LEN(Layout)-CHARINDEX('^',Layout)) AS Remainder
    FROM @YourTable
    WHERE Layout IS NOT NULL AND CHARINDEX('^',Layout)>0
    UNION ALL
    SELECT
    RowID,LEFT(Remainder,CHARINDEX('^',Remainder)-1)
   ,RIGHT(Remainder,LEN(Remainder)-CHARINDEX('^',Remainder))
    FROM SplitSting
    WHERE Remainder IS NOT NULL AND CHARINDEX('^',Remainder)>0
    UNION ALL
    SELECT
    RowID,Remainder,null
    FROM SplitSting
    WHERE Remainder IS NOT NULL AND CHARINDEX('^',Remainder)=0

)

select SUBSTRING(part,CHARINDEX('=',part)+1,(CHARINDEX('|',part)-CHARINDEX('=',part))-1) as [Date],RIGHT(part,CHARINDEX('=',reverse(part))-1) as [Age] from SplitSting
