Cultural Care Au Pair Chicago Offers Families Affordable Customized Childcare

Cambridge, MA, October 29, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Cambridge, Massachusetts-based Cultural Care Au Pair has been the leader in the au pair industry since the program began over 25 years ago, representing not only the largest agency of its kind but the most well-connected within the cultural exchange community.

The local childcare entity’s Illinois-based Cultural Care Au Pair Chicago arm offers families a unique childcare alternative with live-in childcare providers, aged 18 to 26, hailing from various countries with a one-year visa and the option to extend up to one additional year. As a full-time, live-in childcare provider, au pairs deliver childcare that fits every family’s schedule and budget.

All of our au pairs have prior childcare experience varying from nanny work to teachers, babysitters and everything in-between. In fact, many host parents describe their au pairs as the 'third parent' in the home; au pairs become personally invested in their 'surrogate families,' and vice-versa. This personal investment translates to better care for the children than a nanny or babysitter could ever provide.

For an average weekly cost of only $355 per family, an au pair from Cultural Care Au Pair Chicago, approved by the Department of State, provides 45 hours of childcare coverage and the flexibility to customize those hours to a client’s schedule. Further, au pairs assist with household duties related to the children – including laundry, room pickup and meal preparation – while families benefit from the convenience and peace of mind that comes with live-in help. Children, meanwhile, will receive attention and consistent care from an energetic, loving caregiver and enjoy the comfort of being looked after in their own home by someone who understands the rules and routine. 

“Unlike nannies or babysitters, an au pair is not an employee – she becomes part of your family during her stay,” says Cultural Care Au Pair’s Susan Robinson. “All of our au pairs have prior childcare experience varying from nanny work to teachers, babysitters and everything in-between.

This personal investment translates to better care for the children than a nanny or babysitter could ever provide.”

Cultural Care Au Pairs will also supervise older children during after-school hours and summer breaks; help get children to school, activities and appointments; enrich children’s playtime with internationally-oriented games, stories and activities and expose family members to another language and culture.
