What Role Does Architecture Play In Promoting Cultural Exchange?
At Cultural Care Au Pair, we take pride in the important role we play in connecting families with au pairs. Our goal is to provide a safe, meaningful cultural exchange program that allows both the host family and au pair to learn and grow from one another.
The Role of Cultural Care Au Pair
Cultural Care Au Pair plays a crucial role in every step of the process of finding the perfect au pair to match with your family. Here are some of the key ways in which we support our host families:
1. Cultural Exchange Program
Our au pair program is designed to allow both host families and au pairs to learn from each other and experience a new culture firsthand. We facilitate this by providing training and resources that help both parties navigate cultural differences that may arise during the placement.
2. Pre-Screening Process
Prior to the placement of any au pair, we go through a stringent pre-screening process to ensure that only the most qualified and trustworthy au pairs are connected with our host families. Our pre-screening process includes:
- Criminal background checks
- Multiple in-person interviews
- Reference checks
- Complete health screening
3. Matching Process
We work closely with both the host family and the au pair to ensure that each placement is a good fit. Before placement, we review the needs and preferences of each host family to find an au pair who has the skills and experience to meet those needs.
4. Ongoing Support
Our support doesn’t end once the au pair is placed with the host family. We provide ongoing support to both the au pair and the host family throughout the duration of the program, and we’re always here to answer any questions or concerns that may arise.
5. Cultural Care Community
Our program includes access to a vast network of au pairs and host families who are also participating in the Cultural Care Au Pair program. Our community events and outings provide additional opportunities for cultural exchange and learning, as well as a chance for au pairs and host families to connect and build friendships.
