My name is Heike Kriszun and I have been an Au Pair in America Community Counselor in Massachusetts since September 2008.   I am a mother of a 19 year old boy and a 20 year old girl who are already in College.

I am from Germany and moved with my husband and kids to the USA over 5 years ago. I also spend 3,5 years in the US from 95-98. Moving back and forth oversees was challenging and I gained more confidence in starting over again.

I am also a physical therapist, wellnesstrainer and gave classes for pilates, medical move exercise, nordic Walking and personal training. I love to teach the German language as well.

My service area for AuPair in America includes:Boston, Sharon, Stoughton, Canton, Braintree,  Brookline, Chestnut Hill and Brighton.  I currently have about 50 FABULOUS au pairs placed with host families in my cluster.

My favorite part of my job is the cultural exchange aspect of the Au Pair in America program.  I love meeting au pairs and learning about their different cultures. To see how much hostfamilies care about their own kids growing to respect other cultures is a big step further into global awareness and it brings our world together.
