Au Pair USA
WORK AS AN AU PAIR IN THE USA FOR UP TO 12
MONTHS!
Do you love children? Are you eager to spend an enriching
year abroad? Do you want to experience authentic American life
as a trusted family member? Would you like to make lifelong
friends abroad?
You can make it happen, by living as part of
an American Host Family for a year through our US partner, Cultural
Homestay International (CHI). You’ll help care for your
host family’s children in exchange for the experience
of living as a family member in an American
household.
The Au Pair program is designed to benefit
both you and your host family. It is neither
just a cheap holiday for you nor just cheap
child care for the family.
You will be a family member, which means you
will be included in all family activities but
also be expected to help out with laying the
table, washing dishes etc.
This is a program for adults, so you will have
the freedom to meet friends, do sports, go
out in the evenings etc. but you also have
the obligation to behave responsibly and respect your family.
As you experience how other people live, think,
and raise their children, you will discover new things about
your own life and culture. And, since your J-1 visa allows you
to stay for a “13th month”, you’ll have a chance
to travel in America before returning home to Australia.
