Cultural Care Au Pair

Cultural Care Au Pair

Cultural Care Au Pair

The largest au pair network in the US

Cultural Care has the largest raw candidate pool in the industry, which can speed up initial matching. However, families consistently report that the smaller, more specialized agencies above provide better ongoing support, more transparent pricing, and more responsive coordinators when issues arise.

✓ Pros

  • Largest au pair network — 60,000+ au pairs from 80+ countries
  • Broad geographic coverage across the US
  • AIFS-backed corporate resources and training programs

✕ Cons

  • Recent pattern of complaints about matching transparency and rematch support
  • Higher agency fees than most competitors
  • Large corporate scale can mean impersonal family experience
