Brazilian au pairs in St Louis This has been a lifesaver for us, we moved back home to St. Louis after being gone for a long time. It was during Covid, did not realize the schools were so backed up. The shortest wait of the time we could find was 14 months, and we had no idea what to do. So we had a nanny, she was really good, but unfortunately unreliable with her schedule, and that just messed up our work schedules. So I talked to some friends and somebody suggested a au pair, it has been wonderful. If you have the space in your house for it, I don’t really think there’s any other way to go. The cost upfront feels like a lot, but when you average it out, it is much more reasonable than paying for a full-time nanny or a daycare. Plus, in our opinion, the fact that we have somebody to take our kid around to the zoo and museums and the science center, etc. as opposed to just being a daycare with a bunch of other little kids is much better for his learning overall. So I really cannot think of any downsides with the program, if you have the space in your house, and you’re OK sort of figuring out how to incorporate somebody else into your day-to-day life….This is the way to go.

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)

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.

We did not personally know anyone that… We did not personally know anyone that had used an au pair, so we really went into this blind. Everyone in the agency has been so amazing and helpful. You are immediately connected with three different people in the agency, at least one of which lives in the area. They have been so quick to respond and help us whenever we needed it. We just matched with an au pair and cannot wait for her to join us in a few months.
