Cultural Care Au Pair

Awful screening process, limited matching process, poor customer service. You won't know until it's too late, when you already paid them your non-refundable $7,000.

We tried other agenices (Au Pair Care and Au Pair in America) and found that they just couldn't match us with good candidates. Also, our LCC with cultural care is supportive and lives very close to our home. Au Pair in America's coordinators have huge groups. And the Ap care coordinator lived over 45 minutes away. Cultural Care's screening and training is top notch!  (Hide)

Pros: Affordable and this is questionable if you need to switch au pairs. Have a fall back/third party when issues arise with LCC if you are lucky to get a good and approachable LCC who is not backlogged with other families.Cons: Candidates are... (More) Pros: Affordable and this is questionable if you need to switch au pairs. Have a fall back/third party when issues arise with LCC if you are lucky to get a good and approachable LCC who is not backlogged with other families.Cons: Candidates are not well screened and I discovered untrue information in the written statement written by my ex au pair and the information she gave me once she was here. The training that they offer in New York before arriving in your home according to my ex au pair was without much content and not that useful. When I further asked she stated that they had each group sing songs from their country. Not much safety and first aid, etc. that would be more practical for application. On their website they have marked in orange the candidates that have decided to part ways with their families. This is not completely accurate because we decided to let go of our au pair and her photo was marked with an orange box. This ia deceiving.  (Hide)

AuPairCare is much better with their customer service and truly focused on finding the best match between au pair and host family.

They matched us with an au pair and called us two days before she was supposed to arrive to tell us that she would not be coming. Six weeks later we found another au pair which it turns out was not well screened at all. While under her care, our 18 month ended up woth a broken arm. She did not speak English well and could not understand even the most basic instructions. When we dropped her as our au pair, the agency was completely focused on plaving her with another family so that they could earn their fee but not at all focused on our family's needs. They sent us au pairs who were two time rejects just to get someone in our house rather than finding a good match for our family. It is a bunch of part time moms working there with no follow through and no sense of customer service.  (Hide)
