Choosing childcare is no easy decision. Hosting a Cultural Care au pair gives thousands of families across the country those very important benefits.

I provide year-round support to host families and au pairs, and also talk to families considering the program to help them determine if Cultural Care Au Pair is the right childcare solution for them. Because as parents, we don’t ever want to compromise on quality, flexibility and trust when finding care for the most important people in the world. I invite you to learn more about who our au pairs a

re, what they do, and why more families than ever are joining our program. For over 25 years, Cultural Care Au Pair has helped host families across the country secure childcare that provides flexibility, trust and cultural exchange. Our families love welcoming au pairs year after year. Cultural Care au pairs are carefully screened young adults from over 25 countries worldwide who have childcare experience, CPR and First Aid certification and an interest in joining an American family for a year. FLEXIBILITY

An au pair can provide up to 45 hours per week of childcare (up to 10 hours per day) on a schedule you decide, including early morning, evening and weekend coverage. Au pairs can also care for your children when they are sick, out from school on snow days and during school vacations. Families with busy schedules love hosting au pairs! TRUST

Because an au pair lives with you as a member of your family, your relationship with her develops quickly and mutual trust happens much faster than with a daycare provider or live-out nanny. After an initial period of adjustment, our host parents describe feeling a deep sense of comfort knowing their children are cared for by someone they know and respect. CULTURE

Au pairs come from many countries all over the world and can expose your entire family to their language and culture. Your children will learn words in your au pair’s native tongue and well as songs and games from her home country. Au pairs also help children gain a renewed appreciation for their own environment and a desire to see more of the world. PROTECTION

Cultural Care Au Pair is a government-regulated program, meaning there are guidelines in place designed to protect both families and au pairs during the exchange year. It also means that au pairs travel to the U.S. on a legal J-1 visa, allowing them to stay in the country (and with your family) for up to two years.

Meet Ciro. He is a 23 yr old au pair from Italy. He was an au pair here on the main line back in 2019 and is ready to return again to another warm & loving family with school aged children. He is available to starting in March. "I really want to become again an au pair because I really enjoyed this cultural program. The vibes, the feelings, and the emotions that I got in 2019 during the year, made me want to do this again. I can define myself as a kind, positive, hard worker and strong young man who really put effort and passion in everything I do. I’m looking for a family who really wants to make me part of its and who loves the idea of a big brother for the kid/kids."
