Subject: Article--A Unique Childcare Option
Dear Friends,
I am the local childcare coordinator for Cultural Care Au Pair, and I thought you would be interested in receiving an article about a unique childcare option for busy families in the Oakland County, Mi area.
With more dual-working and single parent families in Michigan than ever before, local parents are finding it difficult to balance life, family and work. For busy families, an important part of this juggling act is finding the right childcare for their children. Families need a trustworthy caregiver that can offer the flexibility a busy family requires. There is one flexible and affordable option available to parents that is gaining popularity in Oakland County hosting a live-in au pair.
Since 1989, the U.S. Department of State has issued a limited number of student J-1 visas to young people from abroad to work as childcare providers in the United States. The au pairs, ages 18-26, care for the children of American families in exchange for a small weekly stipend, the opportunity to take courses at local universities and the chance to experience our culture first hand. Au pairs provide up to 45 hours of childcare per week for the average cost of around $280. This price remains the same no matter how many children a family has, making it a very affordable option for families with two or more children.
Please let me know if you are interested in receiving a bylined article about this unique childcare option gaining popularity among families in the area.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks,
Elise Otis
