Go Au Pair values fun and encourages enjoyment and growth – not only for our participants but for our Community as well. As an LSC, you interact directly with participants and play a vital role in educating, communicating, sharing, being awesome and having fun!

Your primary duties include:

- Providing information and supporting families during the matching process

- Explaining regulations, policies, and rules to Host Families & Au Pairs

- Conducting in-home family interviews/site visits to confirm families understand the program regulations and can host an Au Pair in their home

- Conducting in-home orientations upon arrival of a new Au Pair

- Conducting monthly phone and in person communications with families and Au Pairs

- Organizing frequent in-person "cultural events" in local area for Au Pairs

- Working with headquarters staff as a team to support families and Au Pairs

- Interest in international exchange and education

Nice to have:

- Counseling and conflict resolution experience

- Interest in marketing and growing their local area

- Access to an iPad / tablet to display information during your in-home sites visits and orientations

Training and on-boarding:

To become knowledgeable about how the Au Pair Program works and to learn how to perform your LSC tasks, you’ll need about a year’s worth of experience.  This year timeframe is a typical duration of a family’s placement with an Au Pair and provides you with the full experience of supporting both parties, from start to finish. 

To assist you with this learning process, your training is separated into three major parts.

Part one occurs over the first three months: this new hire training and on-boarding process helps you learn about Go Au Pair, the Au Pair program, the rules, and regulations families follow and how to perform ongoing LSC tasks to support your area.

This paid training is approximately 2.5 hours per week and includes reading, watching videos, self-exercises, and meeting with training personnel. During the first month, you will only be responsible for completing the training while your training mentor will provide support and service to your area until you’re finished – at which point the cluster will be handed off to you.

Part two occurs between months 3 to 6: with your area now assigned to you, you'll apply what you learned in group one's trainings but with your actual families and Au Pairs. Your mentor conducts various one-on-one sessions, each to assist you as you perform each of your LSC tasks for the first time. This paid training is approximately 1.5 hours per month and each includes reading, watching videos, self-exercises, and meeting with training personnel.

Part three of the training is a 10-week program and occurs approximately 6 months after you’ve started. This training focuses on teaching you about the matching process and how you can help families find the right Au Pair. This paid training is approximately 3.5 hours per week and includes reading, self-exercises, and meeting with training personnel.
