Au Pair/Rye Brook, New York

My wife and I and our two daughters live in Rye Brook, New York-a pretty suburb of New York City, which is about a 35-minute train ride away from the heart of the City.I am a lawyer with a home- based practice.When I am not in court or visiting clients, I am generally at home.My wife is also a lawyer and a partner in a New York City firm. We have a small dog, named Chip who is very endearing, cute and easy.He doesn't even shed.He doesn't even smell like a dog.Generally, because the kids have after school activities, our primary needs are to have someone help with getting the kids off to school in the morning and then after school (around 3:30pm) driving them to after school activities and helping with homework.Unless we are dealing with emergency situations, generally either I or Luann would take over by 8pm.We have very few needs on the weekends, other than a few hours here and there.Because of its close proximity to nearby universities and New York City, Rye Brook offers a wonderful opportunity to experience life in the New York metropolitan area. Luann and I have placed great emphasis in our lives on family and have created a warm and inviting home, which we believe has been appreciated by the young people we have hosted.When she is not working Luann is involved with our kids and public affairs.Before moving on to other things this past year, Luann was a village trustee and deputy mayor.She is a hardworking, accomplished person who is a great teacher and good listener.When I am not working on developing my law practice, I am a passionate cook and always seem to have something grilling, braising or baking.I also enjoy discussing history and politics.Our au pairs have always become a part of our family.However, we are also very sensitive of the au pair's free time and will make sure that she experiences all that there is to offer from her year in New York.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.ERBJUDANDET FÖRLÄNGT TILL DEN 18 AUGUSTI 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.
