Au Pair Foundation’s mission is to provide all of our program participants with a quality cross-cultural experience that will enhance their understanding and acceptance of other cultures and foster life-long friendship in addition to providing quality child care to American families and educational opportunities to international au pairs. Through the Au Pair Foundation Program, we hope to give American families the opportunity to learn more about world cultures by placing intelligent people from other countries who display positive attitudes and a willingness to be ambassadors for their home countries.
