Become an au pair in the U.S.

What is an au pair

An au pair is a young adult who lives with a host family in the United States and helps care for their children. In return, you receive accommodation, meals, a weekly allowance, and the wonderful opportunity to experience life in a new country.

The program is designed to provide young individuals with a structured and meaningful experience for both personal and professional growth. By immersing yourself in a new cultural environment, you'll develop valuable childcare skills, improve your English, and build cross-cultural communication abilities that give you a broader global perspective. This experience can open doors for long-term career opportunities in childcare, education, and related fields — all while bringing something truly special to your host family's home.
