The summer months bring many au pairs and the year\u2019s highest concentration of EduCare arrivals.\u00a0 While we all know that EduCare companions have a different work schedule and education benefits than\u00a0 au pairs, what may not be so widely known is that they also participate in a unique orientation program while in Stamford.\u00a0 Both the content and the delivery are tailored to the characteristics of the au pairs and their host families, specifically to working with older host children. \u00a0It is important that the EduCare au pairs attend these orientations.\u00a0In general the EduCare orientation groups tend to be smaller than the standard groups and the participants almost always have a uniformly high level of English proficiency, both receptive and spoken.\u00a0 These two factors contribute to more universal participation and to more nuanced and in depth group conversations.\u00a0 There is often \u201cgive and take\u201d between the participants around cultural and child care topics, rather than simply responding to the group leader.\u00a0 In these groups, it is not unusual for the EduCares to question each other or to challenge the opinions of other group members.\u00a0 The discourse is at a higher and more inclusive level and there are more opportunities for critical thinking and analysis.\u00a0\"globe-book\"<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
