Childcare from a Live-In Au Pair
An au pair is a young adult from another country who lives with your family and provides in-home childcare. Au pairs work up to 45 hours per week in exchange for the opportunity to live with an American family. Because au pairs offer live-in childcare, they have more flexibility and can care for your children at the times that accommodate your family's schedule.
While all AuPairCare au pairs have childcare experience, speak conversational English, have completed a secondary education and are between 18 to 26 years old, the diversity of our au pairs is immense. Families can select from au pairs based on nationality, language, age, driving skills, gender and swimming ability. AuPairCare is committed to finding the right au pair match for your family.
