Au Pair USA:  An Au Pair Agency for Au Pairs and Host Families

 

Host families choose Au Pair USA because there is no other live-in childcare agency that's more reliable or experienced. Au Pair USA has been arranging au pair placements for over 20 years. We follow  strict guidelines set by the U.S. Department of State to make sure that host families and au pairs have the best experience possible. Year-round and summer au pair programs are available.

 

What is an Au Pair?

Au pairs are caring, live-in childcare providers who live as an extended member of their host family and provide childcare for up to 10 hours per day and 45 hours per week. Au pairs are between the ages of 18 and 26, and come from more than 40 countries. In exchange for providing childcare, au pairs receive room, board, and a small stipend.
