Hosting an au pair has been an amazing experience for many American families, but the program is not right for everyone! You should consider hosting an au pair if the following statements are all true:
You are looking for a reliable, flexible, and consistent caregiver for your kids.
You are excited about welcoming a young person from abroad into your family, sharing American culture with them, and supporting them throughout their stay in the U.S.
You are willing and able to provide a private bedroom, at least three meals a day, and other amenities to make their stay more comfortable.
You are a U.S. citizen or permanent resident, and so is your partner (if applicable).
All adults living in your household would pass a criminal background check.
