INFORMATION FOR FAMILIES IN THE UNITED STATES

ABOUT

What can an Au Pair do?
The au pair is expected to work for up to 40 hours per week with ideally 2 days per week completely free. The work is primarily childcare but can include such things as washing, ironing, light housework (vacuuming, dusting), and meal preparation.

All au pair tasks should be focused specifically on the children. Typical daily tasks can include:

  • Waking the children, dressing infants and toddlers, bathing and playing games with them
  • Preparing meals for the children, tidying their belongings, making their beds and doing their laundry
  • Driving the children to or from school appointments and activities
  • Caring for and watching the children while they are asleep if the parents are not at home
  • Reading to the children, praying with them and sharing an understanding of Christian living.

What is their role in the family?
An au pair should live with, eat with and share in the aspects of social life within the family. It is important that they have the opportunity to communicate in English. Because they are born-again Christians they will fit easily into a family who have a sincere faith and appreciation of Christian behaviour and ethics. They will want to join in with activities of the church and not be looking to go ‘clubbing’. From our experience of placing 3,500 girls in Christian homes you will find them a joy and pleasure to be a part of your family.

HOW TO ARRANGE
  1. You submit the application form online.
  2. When we receive it we will ask you to send us a family photo by email. We will send you a reference form to be completed by a church leader.
  3. Once we have your reference we will have a video call with yourselves. If you are accepted we will ask for your registration payment. $99 by Paypal or Bank transfer to a USA account.
  4.  We introduce suitable candidates and others that are becoming available. We look to match the right person into your family with similar interests or church background to yourselves. We do not keep an online database. We make the effort to ensure you get the right person. We know you are praying for the right person. So we also pray to that end.
  5. If you are initially interested in a candidate we recommend you may telephone the au pair or email.  The au pair will not be offered to another family during this period of time. It is important at this stage to communicate with us to give your impressions and feelings about the Au Pair.
  6. You need to explain to the au pair exactly what duties you will expect them to perform.
  7. You must pay the full placement fee once the match has been confirmed and placed with our partner.
  8. In the unlikely case of early termination (by either party) the American Agency or ourselves will offer an alternative Au Pair that is available at that time within the guarantee period of time. We will do our best to make sure it is a Christian girl but this cannot be guaranteed.
  9. We are on the end of a phone (or Skype) at any time in the arrangement to provide advice or support for you or your au pair.
