Au Pair/Scarsdale, NY.

Dear Au Pair; Greetings from the United States!I know you must be very excited about your upcoming experience in America.Let me tell you a few things about our family.Jessica is completing the 7th Grade at Scarsdale Middle School, and loves it.She is very smart, very outgoing, and loves to swim, play tennis and play the piano.She also loves to listen to popular music and write stories, and wants to be a journalist when she grows up.Alyssa is completing the 3rd grade.She, like her sister, enjoys piano and tennis.She is quieter than her older sister, but loves to do puzzles, work in workbooks, and play board games.We currently reside in Scarsdale, New York which is 30 minutes outside of New York City.There is a train that takes you into Manhattan, and we are also very close to Connecticut and New Jersey.Our home is a 5 bedroom house, and the nanny room is on the first floor with it's own bathroom, TV and DVD.We have a large back yard, and there are many parks in the area.But the biggest advantage we have is being so close to Manhattan with all of the theatres, restaurants, musical and dance events, and great shopping.As you can imagine with work, school and lessons, our family life is very busy.We absolutely adore our children and want the very best for them.Education is extremely important and exposing them to different cultures, places and activities is also important.I love the theatre, and have just been nominated to the board of a well-known theatre in Manhattan.We are members of the Metropolitan Museum or Art, and love to spend weekends in the city enjoying the restaurants, museums and of course shopping.We always try to find interesting family activities to participate in on the weekends, including outdoor festivals in the summer, the zoo, museums, etc.We also use the bike paths around our home and the swimming pool and tennis courts at the Scarsdale Recreation Center.We take a few vacations a year, usually someplace warm with a beach or pool and lots of sight seeing activities.Because we have lots of prior experience with Au Pairs, we know it is important for you to become an integral part of our family life.I want to involve you in all of the planning for the kids homework and activities.It is important that we have open communication at all times, and that we help you make a smooth transition into the local Au Pair cluster - here in Scarsdale/Westchester County.We hope to help you learn a lot about American life, make great friends, and become an integral part of our family.See you soon.Du får alltid eget boende, 2 veckors betald semester, $500-$1000 dollar i studiemedel beroende på au pairtjänst.Flygbiljett t & r om du arbetar ett år.Visum för 13 månader.13:e månaden kan du resa runt i USA på egen hand eller genom Track America.Vi har ett ombud på platsen där du bor, som hjälper dig till rätta i din vardag och presenterar dig för andra ungdomar i området.Tillträde: våren / sommaren -06 Ålder: 18 - 26 år.
