Au Pair/California, San Jose.

We are looking forward to our fourth year with an au pair.Our first au pair was from Argentina, and the last 3 have been from Cost Rica.Bruce is a wonderful, adorable, fun-loving child who just loves to play all the time.He has loved each of our au pairs, but especially our current au pair, who treats him with all the love and kindness with which she would treat her own child.He requires a great deal of patience, and a very warm, affectionate approach.Our au pair must love the company of young children, be creative and whimsical.She must be a happy with a sparkle in her eye and laugh easily, as that is what Bruce is used to, and that is the way he is himself.Bruce loves to connect with people, and he wants to feel loved and special.Bruce goes to school Monday through Friday until 12:00.Many afternoons I take him to various activities.Right now he takes swimming lessons, gymnastics twice a week, in addition to speech and occupational therapy for a mild developmental disorder that he has.Her general duties are playing with Bruce since that is a great part of his therapy, feeding him and putting him to bed.She does not drive him anywhere.I work as an attorney every day, but not "full-time." Our au pair has every Saturday at 12:30 through Monday at 1:00 off; in lieu of a weekend off per month.Our next au pair will have a similar schedule.We love the au pair program for a few reasons.First, having live-in help makes the transitions of coming and going much easier for my son.Second, Bruce is starting to understand that people come from all different places, and it is so nice for him to learn about other places and cultures from people who live there.Finally, we really enjoy sharing our home and our culture with our au pair, and having another family member with whom we can laugh and play and have fun.Tillträde: Hösten -07 Eget boende, betald semester.Studiemedel 500-1000 dollar.Inga kostnader för flyg om du arbetar ett år som au pair.Visum för 13 månader.Försäkring ingår.Hemreseskydd vid allvarlig familjesituation.4 dagars kurs i NY innan ankomst till familjen.Vi gör regelbundna intervjuer på orter runt om i Sverige.
