Good evening!
Would you be interested in an Au Pair (international nanny)?
Herea is some brief information about our exciting program:
Au pairs are foreign exchange students, young women (and men), ages 18-26
primarily from Europe & Latin America, that want to spend a year or more
with an American family. They are fluent in English as well as their native
language.
In exchange for a private room, board, a weekly stipend and an annual
educational allowance of $500 they'll provide up to 45 hours of childcare
(and related childcare duties) as a live-in nanny. They are in the USA on legal
visas and can also travel domestically or abroad with minimal paperwork. They
are required to attend monthly au pair meetings, and obtain 6 hours of credit
from an accredited school/college annually. They are screened, medically insured
and experienced.
Here is just a short list of what our Au Pairs can do:
* Quality Coverage for up to 45 hours per week (you set the schedule!)
* Weekends/Nights are Possible
* Au Pairs handle Children's meals, laundry and clean up
* Children are exposed to new language and culture
* Most Au Pairs drive (so children's activities, school, etc. are easier to
handle)
* They live-in -- so snow days / sick days are not a problem!
* Continuous local support for your local counselor
* Our Agency handles visas, flights, etc.
* Au Pairs usually stay one year -- but new rules allow them to choose an extra
year.
* Our Au Pair Program is regulated by the U.S. Dept. of State
All Au Pairs:
*Participate in a careful screening process
*Are qualified 18 to 26 years old
*Are proficient in English
*Participate in an orientation and training program
*Enjoy children and have previous experience
*Express a sincere interest in living with an American family for a year
*Have successfully completed their country's secondary education.
*The entire program is overseen by the U.S. Dept. of State!!
We offer both a full year program and a summer Au Pair program. Host Familieson the full year program have the option to extend their au pair's stay longer if needed.
Can they drive? Do we need to provide a car?
Drivers are a frequent request and they're certainly available. However,there is no need to provide a dedicated vehicle. Having access to a car for their duties is convenient for many households that don't have mass transit
options nearby. If you're located in an urban area with public transport then a non-driving au pair could work as well.
