One key to a successful year with an au pair is honest open communication and the sharing of all of your very important family details. The Household Handbook is meant to encourage open dialogue and serve as a reference guide for your au pair while she is in your home. It is a tool to help host families document important details that you want your au pair to know about your family and the care of your children. Learn more about the Household Handbook by watching my video.
What do au pairs learn at the Au Pair Training School? Where is the campus located? What is their schedule like? What are the meal options? Surely you receive many questions about the Au Pair Training School.
Visit our new Au Pair Training School Website for more information and direct your host families there as well!
We are very excited to launch our new Host Family Survey Website! Learn more about the survey methodology used, see all survey questions and results, read testimonials and learn about program changes Cultural Care has made based on feedback received in past surveys.
