America's First Au Pair Program
Trusted live-in child care — since 1986
Discover the difference of
cultural, live-in child care
We know that you and your family have many options for child care.
So why choose us?
Au Pair in America was the first program authorized by the Department of State to serve as sponsor for the au pair program and has provided the opportunity for more than 110,000 au pairs to live with families like yours across the United States for over 30 years.
We strive to provide families with the highest quality child care and top-notch service and support every step of the way.
OUTSTANDING SERVICE
With more experience than any other au pair agency, we provide assistance with selecting your au pair, coordinating logistics, providing orientation for your family and au pair, year-round local support, medical insurance for your au pair and 24/7 emergency assistance.
Every family is assigned a local, professional community counselor for daily, ongoing, local support to you and your au pair to ensure a happy and successful experience.
FLEXIBLE AND DEPENDABLE CARE
With an au pair, you will be able to create your own child care schedule of up to 10 hours per day and up to 45 hours per week. By having your child care provider living in your home, dealing with sick days, snow days and life’s little surprises has never been easier.
PROGRAM OPTIONS TO FIT YOUR FAMILY
Whether your children are infants or school aged, Au Pair in America has the solution for your family. Choose from three unique program options offered to meet the varied needs of your family.
EXPERT MATCHING
We’ll help you find the perfect au pair based on your family’s unique and specific preferences. View profiles online or have our placement experts send you profiles that best match your family’s needs.
LARGE SELECTION OF AU PAIRS
With applicants ages 18-26, from 5 continents/55 countries, you have access year round to a large selection of candidates. Our multi-tiered screening ensures that only the most exceptional and qualified au pairs are accepted.
ORIENTATION
You will attend an orientation session in your community and your au pair will complete an online course and attend a comprehensive orientation upon arrival to the U.S.
The focus of the orientation is on:
• Cultural adaptation and problem solving
• Child development and safety
We also partner with the American Red Cross and AAA for custom orientation workshops. Au pairs also receive child development and safety sessions in your community throughout the year
AN ENRICHING CULTURAL EXPERIENCE
Your family will receive more than just great child care. Your children will have an opportunity to receive a unique, global education during their most formative years, learning about the world and your au pair’s culture and customs.
