OTHER NANNY & AU PAIR PROGRAMS
Au Pair is a term referring to child care providers who usually come to this
country from Europe or Scandinavia for a year and live in the family's home.
They are usually young and are interested in improving their English language
skills, as well as in caring for children.
The state department regulates these workers in certain ways, including how much
they earn ($139.05 per week for 45 hours) and mandates that employers pay an
education fee so the caregiver has access to education ($500)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
If you have any questions or comments about any of these programs, please
contact Staff and Family Programs at sandfp@duke.edu.
**Neither nannies nor au pair programs are
regulated. Nannies can be hired either independently or through an agency that
specializes in matching nannies with families. Generally, nanny and au pair
agencies complete background checks, and screen and train their nannies and au
pairs. Ask each agency to provide information (preferably in writing) about
their specific practices. Parents should ask the agencies and/or nannies
themselves about their backgrounds, education, training and experience. Parents
can call their local Better Business Bureau (www.bbb.org)
for more information about each program.
