Culture Care made it easy to find a wonderful fit for our family and Giuli has been incredible.
With her, we have achieved some work-life balance in our lives by having more flexibility. I’ve told others, it was like letting a little air out of the balloon—there’s no longer so much pressure on my shoulders all the time.

Having an au pair has been an incredible gift to our family.
Marco is our superhero. In a year of amazing challenge, he regularly saves the day. He makes our three boys smile, and he is a powerful role model for what a man should be.

After initially hiring a nanny, we turned to Cultural Care so that we could have an au pair live with us as part of our family.
Cultural Care makes it easy to explore good au pair options, and once we made a final choice, they facilitated everything to bring Laura to our family. Thank you Culture Care!

Our experience with Karima has been so wonderful!
There’s just an extra level of comfort knowing that your kids are being cared for by someone who genuinely loves them and doesn’t approach it as just another job.

We like that we know our children’s caregiver intimately and have more oversight in the care provided.
What we didn’t anticipate was that having an au pair would also allow our children much needed sleep (drastically improving their moods) and a huge sense of security. Hosting Isa has been the greatest decision we have ever made!”

As two parents with full time, demanding careers, having an au pair has made all the difference for us.
Having reliable, in-home childcare with an au pair has allowed us to be the best at both work and at home with our baby. Additionally, it has been so fun getting to know our au pair, about her culture, and about her own family. Hosting an au pair has been an incredible experience for us.
