What is an Au Pair?
Being an au pair is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to explore the USA and gain independence.
An au pair lives with an American host family for a year and cares for their children. In exchange, they receive free room and board, a weekly stipend, and opportunities to travel and study in the USA. If you love children and want to take a year off to grow both personally and professionally, the au pair programme could be the perfect next step for you.
