A group of au pairs currently residing in and around Seattle/Bellevue talk about where they like to bring the children under their care. In addition to the various libraries, malls and restaurants with indoor play areas, popular hot spots included, the Seattle Aquarium, Kidz Bounce in Issaquah, SkyMania Trampolines in Kirkland, the Pacific Science Center in Seattle, the Seattle Gymnastic Academy in various locations and even the Woodland Park Zoo (although admittedly challenging to find many animals willing to brave the rain!). After our conversations, several headed out to the Underground Tour – a fine and fun escape from the rain!

Home Country Traditions and Holidays Abroad – December 2012
Over 50 au pairs met in a host family home in Medina on Sunday to share their home country holiday traditions in the form of dance, song, word and cookie. Treats were exchanged in an old fashioned cookie swap – including Korean shrimp puffs – and gifts were exchanged (and then stolen) in a just-for-fun white elephant/Yankee swap. Au Pair In America wishes everyone a wonderful holiday – especially those experiencing it for the first time abroad!
The world comes together to celebrate the holiday season – December 2011

Our au pairs from all other the globe share their customs and traditions during the holiday season. Spanish-speaking, German-speaking, English-speaking, Mandarin-speaking, Thai-speaking au pairs shared songs of the season. What talent! What passion! Gives us pause that the future of our world will be just fine in the hands of these brave, dedicated women of peace.
