Dear Au Pair,

2018 marks our 28th year helping to introduce au pairs to the wonders of North America through affordable travel.

For the past 9 years we've partnered with the Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC) to offer educational opportunities through its Learning Across America program. These courses combine classroom sessions and travel.

Since 2015, BMCC has expanded its offerings to include Learning on Location educational courses which allows au pairs to fly to a "must visit" destination for a long weekend to attend class, have an option to  live on a university campus and learn about the city first-hand!

What better way to learn the history and culture of a city than to study both in the classroom and at famous sites with your teacher at your side!
