GBSimple 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)

GBGood Initial Impressions- difficult period after matching The company does very well throughout the application process as well as with the check ins when arriving in the states. The company needs a lot of work once a match has been processed. The period between matching and departure was extremely difficult to navigate. I felt as though the staff stopped responding as quickly and as effectively as they had been prior to the match

GBSeamless Experience The experience has been so easy I would highly recommend their program. The Cultural Care team is so helpfu, communication is clear and professional. They follow up often, which is appreciated considering I’m very busy.

GBSupport and verification can be better Support and verification can be better. We've used cultural au pair for the past 4 years and it is helpful with finding a new au pair. However the LCC support has been inconsistent with our area and our au pairs reflect that they have to figure out alot of information by themselves. It is also noted that the driving ability of the au pair is difficult to gage as well. The driving ability seems to be self-reported and can be oversold by the au pairs. We found that we often have to teach them how to drive safely.
