Me and my host family I find the perfect family for me who want to share moments together. I really like the way they behave with me and support me in everything I can do !

the experience… the company can review the experience of the host family an how they want to be with the au pair, how is going to be relationship with her, how many things they are going to share.

Disadvantages of being au pair Is a good opportunity to meet new places and people and get a bit of different cultures. In the other hand this program has so many things to fix, starting from the health care insurance which is not good or affordable at all, LCCs that are not enough trained to help so many people, life in the US is extremely expensive for us and even more when we have to pay taxes that takes a 10% of that small we make. Families pay yearly thousands to the agencies, but it would be fair us receiving at least a good part from that to make it part of our salary, because at the end of the day we are WORKING 45 hours per week.

Simple process The process is fairly seamless and the network of Au Pairs is extensive. Finding Au Pairs to connect with on the website was a breeze. The profile was pretty easy to fill in. The au pair profiles and videos are generally thorough and relevant. The website provides good tips. We have a great local coordinator who was very helpful through the process. The search feature could be improved upon to filter on more characteristics relevant to a search (i.e. filtering out au pairs willing to watch fewer kids than will be needed for a given family)

Cultural Care is a game changer Cultural Care was very thorough in the application process to get signed up to be a host family. They thought of almost every aspect to help families determine what they are looking for in an au pair. During the search process, even though having only 3 connections at a time seems like a small number, it does help to narrow your focus so you don't have a wide net of connections you can't keep control over. The matching specialists were helpful with their calls each week as responsiveness to calls/texts in between the weekly calls to answer questions.
