"What is amazing with being an au pair is the opportunity to become part of a new family while discovering a different culture. You get to build a close bond with the children and watch them grow every day. Living abroad also allows you to meet new people and make international friends. Another great aspect is the personal freedom to travel and explore your host country. Overall, being an au pair combines adventure, learning, and meaningful relationships.”

Felicitas
Swiss au pair in California
"My first year as an au pair has been amazing. I have a strong relationship with my host family and specially with the kids. I met so many au pairs who are now my best friends. I’m having the opportunity to travel around the West Coast and visit beautiful places, from big cities like Los Angeles and Chicago to a lot of National Parks. Also I spend some days of my vacation in Hawaii and it was probably my favorite trip. I still have 6 months left and I hope I could do as many things as I did my first semester here!”

Ketlyn
Brazilian au pair in California
"Travelling to the USA as an au pair is the best thing that has ever happened to me. It has allowed me to meet so many wonderful people, find a second family, and most importantly, experience another culture in a country I love. The au pair program truly changed my life; I always wanted to live in the United States, and now I can. I’ve learned to speak English, met my boyfriend here, and discovered new things about myself, which helped me evolve and grow."

“We absolutely love our au pair Daye. We are so lucky to have her as a part of our family.
My son absolutely adores her. She’s been so helpful in navigating my son turning three and going through some big emotions. I knew she was the perfect fit when on the first weekend of her arrival, my son was asking her to put him to bed. That’s when I knew he trusted her and felt some comfortable with her. Daye has become such an integral part of our family. Our family truly enjoys spending time with her including watching movies or shows and playing board games.
What’s the most remarkable about Daye is she’s just a natural member of the family. Nothing feels forced or without intention. She is an awesome edition to our family."
