Au Pair/Potomac, MD

We are looking for a loving and very active au pair to share in our busy life.We are a very active family living in Potomac Maryland, a very -beautiful suburb near Washington DC, the home of the president of the United States (even though he has never come to visit us).Washington is filled with history and wonderful museums, and they are all free!We moved here less than two years ago and we are so happy here.We have all made wonderful new friends, we love our neighborhood, and the weather is much better here than in New Jersey where we used to live. We have a lovely yard and my husband is very excited about planting a garden this spring.We have three wonderful (and noisy) boys.James is 13 years old and is a very independent kid.He doesn't really need an au pair to take care of him but he is a very big help around the house.He loves basketball, basketball and basketball.Nicholas is 11 and is the real character in our house.He loves to play ice hockey, he hates homework, and his favorite activity is teasing his brothers.Jose is our third son, and although he is only 6, he thinks he is 16.He is fun and funny and loves everything and anything his brother's love.As you can imagine, with three sons, sports is very important in our house.We are either playing sports or watching sports.My husband loves hanging out with the boys and cheering on his favorite sports teams; most of them are New York teams since my husband grew up in New York and the boys were born in New York.They love to cook and I get to clean up after them.Both my husband and I work very hard but we both love our work; he works with older adults and I work with children.I am the principal of a private school in Rockville Maryland.The school is only five minutes away, which is great since I work very hard.The boys all go to the same school and it is wonderful to have a job where I also get to see my children.My husband is the director of a senior living facility.He treats these older adults with such respect and dignity and they love him at work.My children have been to work with my husband and have learned about being compassionate and caring.I am so proud of the way they treat everyone in their lives, young and old.The only problem is how sometimes they treat each other - after all, they are brothers!Over the years we have appreciated having an au pair and babysitters from different places and different religions.It has given my boys a better understanding of the bigger world and an appreciation of different cultures.I hope that you will choose to join our family.We can't wait for you to join us in Maryland.Tillträde: Hösten -08 Fri resa och sjukförsäkring ingår (värde 5800:-) om du har en komplett ansökan före den 31 juli 2008.Gäller vid avresa till USA under 2008.Eget boende, betald semester.Studiemedel 500-1000 dollar.Hemreseskydd vid allvarlig familjesituation.4 dagars kurs i NY innan ankomst till familjen.Regelbundna Au Pairmöten i USA.Vi gör regelbundna intervjuer på orter runt om i Sverige.
