AU PAIR
PROGRAMS
What is Au Pair program?
We offer you an opportunity to work as Au Pair in USA, England, Italy, Spain, and other European countries.
During the program, you have a chance to work, travel and live with a host family while being responsible for the childcare. Au Pair is like a member of the family, where you have your own room and food is always on the table.
You will get weekly pocket money for your personal use!
The purpose of the program is not earning money, instead, it aims to give you a chance to discover the world, experience new culture and life, and mature and develop personally.
It also offers and excellent opportunity to improve your language skills or learn new languages in a way which is impossible in lessons at school.
It is a valuable adventure, you will definitely remember rest of your life!
