Despite being the smallest country geographically in Central America, El Salvador has the third largest economy in the region. Almost all residents speak Spanish, which was brought in by the Spanish settlers. Before the Spanish conquest, the area was inhabited by the Pipil Indians. Very few Salvadorians now speak the indigenous language. Our International Representative in El Salvador, Anabella de Alegria explains that all Salvadorian Au Pair candidates have personal meetings with her at every stage of the application process. She gets to know them, check their English skills and driving experience. She also says that English is a mandatory subject in schools in El Salvador and to obtain a drivers license, candidates must take driving lessons at a private driving school. “We have a close bond with the United States, there are many candidates that have been to the U.S.A. as tourists or have friends and relatives there, so we understand the American culture and candidates have no difficulties adapting to the daily life in America.”
In honor of our featured country, families who match with an Au Pair from El Salvador in August, will receive $100 off the program fees
