“Exploring America is the best thing I have ever done. I have already learnt so much and I love my host children dearly. 

The main things I will take away from this experience is to move forward and never look back, to love my kids and to always remind them of that love and, finally, to grab any opportunity that comes my way because that's what I did with the au pair programme and it's turned out to be the best decision I've made.”

“Deciding to become an au pair was easy! I was working with children anyway, which is my passion and one day I woke up and said to myself "I'd love to do what I'm already doing but be able to travel at the same time".

I would definitely recommend this programme, it's changed my life. I've finally found who I am as a person, what my strengths are and also my weaknesses. I have also decided what career path I want to go down! (Finally) I've made life long friends from all around the world! From Australia to South Africa!

I came to America wanting to have life long experiences to be able to tell my future children and I have definitely succeeded! 

I couldn't be more blessed! Thank you Cultural Care”

We asked Lucyanne an au pair from the UK: why did you decide to become an au pair?

“Since I could talk I have wanted to live in America, and I was working in health care as full time employment. The idea of combining both passions is what made the decision final, I loved working with children and getting to do that job whilst living in America was the perfect fit. On a personal note I also saw this opportunity to gain more confidence as well as gaining more knowledge on different cultures from living as an American but also from the friends you make. I now have friends from so many different countries all of which have something new to teach.”

‘I found the perfect host family and our common interests and active lifestyles made us an ideal match, however it wasn't until I interviewed with the family via Skype that we clicked and I knew that they were the family I wanted to embark on this incredible adventure with.

This has been one of the best decisions I have made and I look forward to see what exciting adventures are still come.’

“I would recommend cultural care for those who want to experience something new, travel to amazing places and make friends. you also learn a lot about yourself, become stronger, independent and more mature. My host family have been the best host family which is why I feel at home and want to stay.

Travelling in the USA is fun and very easy also cheap if you do a road trip, I did a road trip down the east coast and visited some amazing places such as Nashville, Atlanta, Savanah, DC and more. I’ve made great friends from all over the world that I can now visit, do some more travelling and experience new cultures.”
