Chicago, IL

Au Pair USA has a very active cluster of au pairs and host families in the communities around Chicago Illinois, including many areas of Cook, Du Page, DeKalb, Lake, Kendall, LaPorte, Kane, Will, Porter and McHenry Counties in Illinois, and Munster and Dyer Counties in Northwest Indiana. Each month, Au Pair USA Local Coordinators work with host families, helping them with the matching process and answering their questions about the program. They also arrange monthly meetings and social events for au pairs to help them build friendships and adjust to life in the United States.

About Leslie:

Hello, my name is Leslie, and I have been an Au Pair USA local coordinator for the Chicago area for eleven years! I enjoy the opportunity to get to know my families and help them find the "right" au pair.

My husband Phil and I have four children. We live in River Forest, IL, which is just fifteen minutes away from downtown Chicago. We have two children in college, one at Northwestern University and the other at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Our other two children attend OPRF High School, one is a junior and the other is a freshman. Phil and I are both extremely involved with our children's lives and our community. Even though I have not traveled the world as I would like to, my experience with InterExchange Au Pair USA allows the world to travel to me!

Every month I plan an activity and meeting for my au pairs to enjoy their time in the U.S.. Please let me know if you have any questions about the program. I look forward to meeting you!

Best wishes,
Leslie

About Leslie's Cluster:

  • "The Windy City" of Chicago is located in the Midwest, on the shore of Lake Michigan.
  • We average around 35-40 au pairs and host families in our cluster. We often meet up with au pairs from another Au Pair USA cluster too, so there are plenty of chances to make new friends!


  • The weather here varies, being cold and snowy in the Winter, warm and rainy in the Spring, hot in the Summer and chilly but beautiful in Autumn. You will need a warm winter coat, but don't forget your bathing suit! Many au pairs swim in the pools and Lake Michigan during the Summer.
