Affordable Live-In Childcare

Cultural Exchange Au Pair program provides families with an opportunity to obtain live-in childcare and promote cultural awareness.

Astar Education Institute, a local non-profit out of Manassas, VA, is
seeking families interested in participating in our Cultural Exchange
Au Pair Program.
The program
asks families to sponsor and host an international student for one
year, during which time the student will work on earning their certified
nursing assistant license and work for the family as an au pair,
providing services including, but not limited to, childcare, household
chores/duties, cooking, and tutoring.
All of our students must
meet a rigorous set of qualifications, including a high level of
proficiency in English and at least 200 documented hours of childcare
experience, to ensure that they can provide your family with the
superior care they deserve. Their nursing training will ensure that your
au pair is well-suited to respond to a wide range of situation, from
the common cold to emergency situations. Families will have the chance
to screen the profiles of many potential au pairs and perform Skype
interviews before making a final decision, ensuring they will find an au
pair that suits their family's personality and needs.

This is an excellent and unique opportunity for families to obtain
high-quality, live-in childcare at an affordable price while also
promoting cultural diversity, awareness, and education both in their
home and in their community.
If this sounds like the solution to
your childcare needs, or if you would simply like to know more, please
contact Astar Education Institute at 703-368-6838 or email Daniel at
daniel@astarinstitute.org
We hope to hear from you soon!
