We are very strict on our requirements, because we want to ensure excellent au
pairs for our families, but if you qualify, we want you! Here are some reasons
to work with us:
-
Federal Designation: Expert AuPair is one of only twelve federally
designated au pair sponsor organizations. Our program includes the DS-2019 form
required in order to obtain a J-1 cultural exchange visa. All designated au
pair sponsors have undergone a rigorous application process, and all must meet
high standards of service, including, for example, performing in-home
interviews and reference checking on host families.
-
Saint Petersburg Orientation: Expert AuPair brings au pairs in to Saint
Petersburg for their orientation. You'll be housed in the walkable downtown, where you can experience the sunniest city in America without having to worry
about driving around.
-
Excellent medical insurance: We provide, for no extra charge, a
comprehensive medical insurance plan with $0 deductible. Covered expenses
on this standard plan are 100% paid by the insurance
company. This means that if you get sick while you are in the
US, your visit to the doctor will normally be completely free. As with
any American insurance, there are exclusions, but it's well worth comparing
medical insurance from other organizations before you make a decision � there's
nothing more frustrating than being sick but not being able to pay to go
to the doctor.
-
Your Choice: You and the host family will choose each
other. You even get to select which State(s) you would like to work in. We will never force you to choose a family. You
can keep looking until you find a perfect match.
-
Framework of Support: Designated organizations provide local and
regional representatives to serve as a framework of support to our community of
families. Since your agency is based in Florida, you'll know that we can
respond quickly to your problems.
-
Pre-screening: We pre-screen families and view
the accommodations being offered.
-
More money in your pocket: Our fees are low. Au pairs from
many countries can recoup this cost after one week's work.
-
More affordable extension year: A one-time extension is
available at the end of a successful year, at no additional cost to you. Expert
AuPair has the most affordable extension year for your host family, and this
makes it more likely that they will extend if you have a good relationship with
them, and if you are doing your job well.
