AN INCREASING DEMAND FOR CHINESE AU PAIRS

The world has become so global in the last several years that it has become increasingly important to expose our children to other cultures and languages.  Children who grow up understanding other cultures and who can communicate with people of other countries have so much more the advantage as they grow up and go into the real world to begin their careers.


China has become a huge global economic leader.  More and more we will see the need for people who speak Mandarin to be our business leaders, teachers, doctors, etc.  There will also be a need for people who understand the Chinese culture and way of life.  Without an understanding of the people you are working with, there can be misunderstandings and barriers.  A simple high school or college course is great, but what if your children could grow up with the language and culture right in their homes?  That is an advantage that cannot be replicated in any other way. 


Also, with so many families adopting little girls from China, it's no wonder that so many people are looking for a childcare provider that not only speaks Mandarin or Cantonese but can share the beautiful Chinese culture with their family in the process.

As people become aware of the advantages of finding childcare providers who can teach their children the Chinese culture and language, Go Au Pair is seeing a huge increase in demand for Chinese au pairs.

They have a large pool of applicants to choose from--many of which are infant qualified and/or have driver's licenses.  The average age for a Chinese au pair right now is 24, so you also get someone who is mature and ready for a cultural experience themselves.


Since there is such a great demand for Chinese au pairs, Go Au Pair has selected China to be the Featured Country for the month of April.  Families who match with an au pair this month will receive $100 off their program fees.  The embassy appointments are usually about 2 days out, so there is not a long wait time, which means people looking for someone to start before summer have plenty of time to select the au pair that best fits their families needs.
