Culturalcare – Affordable Live In Childcare
Are you looking for someone to live in your home and take are of your children? Have you ever thought about hiring an Au Pair from another country? This can be a great experience for your family to introduce your children to other cultures and at the same time introducing an Au Pair to America. In this article we will give you some information on how to become a host family for an Au Pair using Culturalcare Au Pair’s childcare and cultural exchange program.
If you want to become a host to an Au Pair there are some requirements. Number one is that both parents have to be a United States citizen. You have to be open to other cultures. You have to need 45 hours a week of childcare. Also you have to be able to provide the Au Pair with their own bedroom. You also must be able to attend family conferences and orientation meetings.
When you invite an Au Pair into your home then you are making that person a part of your family. This means treating them like a member of the family. This means including them in family meals and on family outings.
The Au Pair’s responsibilities will be to watch the children for 45 hours a week. The duties can be dispensed anyway that you want them to be; as long as they do not exceed 10 hours a day. They will do light housework like dishes, laundry and making beds.
You will need to make sure that the Au Pair has at least one full day and one half day off a week. You are also required to give them a full weekend off every month. You will also give them two weeks paid vacation in a year.
An Au Pair is required to take educational classes. You will be required to pay for these and also make sure that they have transportation to the classes.
Hosting an Au Pair in your home is much cheaper then putting your children in daycares or hiring a nanny. You will pay an Au Pair around $320 a week no matter how many children you have.
If you want someone to take care of your children that is part of the family then hosting an Au Pair is the way to go.
