I’m very grateful to Go Au Pair for this amazing experience! From the very beginning, the agency has been supportive, professional, and always ready to help. They made the whole process smooth and stress-free. I was very lucky to match with an amazing host family, and thanks to them and the program I was able to travel to many of my dream cities and places in the U.S which broadened my perspective and enriched my cultural understanding. This year gave me a chance to grow, explore and learn new things about myself and I can't wait to see what my second year awaits me. One piece of advice I have for future Au Pairs is during the interview process be prepared, have a list of questions and things you can/cannot budge on and stick to them. Be honest and have open communication from the start and you'll find your perfect host family. This experience has taught me a lot, and I am grateful to have done it with Go Au Pair.+1August 20, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
