This is a time to meet new Au Pairs who may be feeling lonely or homesick. Everyone remembers how difficult and sad those first few weeks are. Having more seasoned Au pairs present at the first cluster meeting to comfort a new Au pair can really make all the difference in her confidence. You might also meet a special new friend!<\/p>\n<p>Important information is given at each cluster meeting. Great questions from other Au pairs can also provide you with extra information about a topic. This information will not be sent to you if you do not attend.<\/p>\n<p>You are required by the governing body of our Au pair Agency to have a monthly communication with the counselor each month. Attending the monthly cluster meeting fulfills this requirement. If you don&#8217;t attend the meeting, it is your responsibility to reach out to your community counselor to have monthly contact.<\/p>\n<p>We have fun doing activities altogether. Some activities are arranged with all of the local clusters. This is a great opportunity to meet other Au Pairs from your country and all around the world. Some cluster meetings are more intimate for just our cluster. These meetings are special because they allow us to get to know one another.<\/p>\n<p>Planning a special outing for a group is a difficult and sometimes costly mission for the counselor. You can reward her efforts by attending each meeting or by calling her and explaining why you are not able to attend. These actions show good manners and responsibility on your part.<\/p>\n<p>Painting pottery, getting a pedicure, visiting Stone Mountain, attending art festivals and having a pizza party are just some of the fun activities we do at our cluster meetings. My favorite times are those spent in my backyard just hanging out relaxing together.\u00a0Looking forward to seeing <em><strong>you<\/strong><\/em> at the next meeting!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"wpcontent\">\n<div id=\"wpbody\">\n<div id=\"wpbody-content\">\n<div class=\"wrap\">\n<div id=\"poststuff\">\n<div id=\"post-body\" class=\"metabox-holder columns-2\">\n<div id=\"post-body-content\">\n<div id=\"postdivrich\" class=\"postarea wp-editor-expand\">\n<div id=\"wp-content-wrap\" class=\"wp-core-ui wp-editor-wrap tmce-active has-dfw\">\n<div id=\"wp-content-editor-container\" class=\"wp-editor-container\">\n<div id=\"mceu_36\" class=\"mce-tinymce mce-container mce-panel\">\n<div id=\"mceu_36-body\" class=\"mce-container-body mce-stack-layout\">\n<div id=\"mceu_43\" class=\"mce-statusbar mce-container mce-panel mce-last mce-stack-layout-item\">\n<div id=\"mceu_43-body\" class=\"mce-container-body mce-flow-layout\">\n<div id=\"mceu_44\" class=\"mce-path mce-first mce-last mce-flow-layout-item\">\n<div id=\"mceu_44-0\" class=\"mce-path-item\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<table id=\"post-status-info\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td id=\"wp-word-count\">Word count: <span class=\"word-count\">0<\/span><\/td>\n<td class=\"autosave-info\"><span class=\"autosave-message\">Draft saved at 9:09:18 pm.<\/span> <span id=\"last-edit\">Last edited on June 27, 2012 at 3:46 pm<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"postbox-container-1\" class=\"postbox-container\">\n<div id=\"side-sortables\" class=\"meta-box-sortables ui-sortable\">\n<div id=\"submitdiv\" class=\"postbox \">\n<div class=\"handlediv\" title=\"Click to toggle\"><\/div>\n<h3 class=\"hndle ui-sortable-handle\">Publish<\/h3>\n<div class=\"inside\">\n<div id=\"submitpost\" class=\"submitbox\">\n<div id=\"minor-publishing\">\n<div id=\"minor-publishing-actions\">\n<div id=\"save-action\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"preview-action\"><a id=\"post-preview\" class=\"preview button\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.aupairinamerica.com\/atr\/au-pair-information\/\" target=\"wp-preview-69\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Preview Changes<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"misc-publishing-actions\">\n<div class=\"misc-pub-section misc-pub-post-status\"><label for=\"post_status\">Status:<\/label> <span id=\"post-status-display\">Published<\/span> <a class=\"edit-post-status hide-if-no-js\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.aupairinamerica.com\/atr\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=69&amp;action=edit#post_status\">Edit<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Edit status<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<div id=\"visibility\" class=\"misc-pub-section misc-pub-visibility\">Visibility: <span id=\"post-visibility-display\">Public<\/span> <a class=\"edit-visibility hide-if-no-js\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.aupairinamerica.com\/atr\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=69&amp;action=edit#visibility\">Edit<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Edit visibility<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"misc-pub-section curtime misc-pub-curtime\"><span id=\"timestamp\"> Published on: <b>Jun 27, 2012 @ 15:46<\/b><\/span><a class=\"edit-timestamp hide-if-no-js\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.aupairinamerica.com\/atr\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=69&amp;action=edit#edit_timestamp\">Edit<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Edit date and time<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"major-publishing-actions\">\n<div id=\"delete-action\"><a class=\"submitdelete deletion\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.aupairinamerica.com\/atr\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=69&amp;action=trash&amp;_wpnonce=8373d22617\">Move to Trash<\/a><\/div>\n<div id=\"publishing-action\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"pageparentdiv\" class=\"postbox \">\n<div class=\"handlediv\" title=\"Click to toggle\"><\/div>\n<h3 class=\"hndle ui-sortable-handle\">Page Attributes<\/h3>\n<div class=\"inside\">\n<p><strong>Parent<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><label class=\"screen-reader-text\" for=\"parent_id\">Parent<\/label><br \/>\n(no parent)<br \/>\nMeet the Counselor<br \/>\nHost Family Info<br \/>\nFun Things We Do<br \/>\nQ &amp; A<br \/>\nArchive<br \/>\nResources<br \/>\n<strong>Template<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><label class=\"screen-reader-text\" for=\"page_template\">Page Template<\/label><br \/>\nDefault Template<br \/>\nArchives<br \/>\nAu Pair Tips<br \/>\nChildcare<br \/>\nFront Page Template<br \/>\nFull-width Page Template, No Sidebar<br \/>\nFun Things<br \/>\nHost Family Tips<br \/>\nKids<br \/>\nQ and A<br \/>\n<strong>Order<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><label class=\"screen-reader-text\" for=\"menu_order\">Order<\/label><\/p>\n<p>Need help?
