Are you concerned about the lack of training for your child's nanny in Tennessee, Memphis, Germantown, Collierville, Cordova, Bartlett, Jackson, Olive Branch and Southaven, Mississippi ?

Au Pair Training that a Nanny just doesn't receive

The Au Pair Academy

All Au Pair Care au pairs attend the Au Pair Academy prior to arrival to the host family's home. This special program is designed to provide au pairs with an introduction to their year as an au pair and to provide practical training and information about childcare and safety topics. The program also focuses on introducing au pairs to American culture and what they can expect living with an American host family.
During the 3-day program, the Au Pair Academy instructors conduct discussions, activities and lead hands-on training at our state-of-the-art New Jersey campus,
a short distance from New York City.

Au pair training topics include:

  • Roles & responsibilities of an Au Pair Care au pair
  • Stages of child development (infant to young teen)
  • Keeping children safe at every age
  • Professional hands-on CPR & First Aid training, utilizing the American Heart Association course curriculum
  • Information on bathing & feeding American children
  • Strategies for caring for more than one child at a time
  • Games & activities for stimulating child development
  • American culture & the typical American household
  • Creating a positive working relationship with host parents
  • Responsibilities & safety precautions for driving in the USA
  • General household safety & hygiene
If you have an infant or are expecting, learn more about our Infant Specialized Au Pair Training Program.


“Camilla’s training put us at ease. Not only did she have great previous experience caring for children, but she was also trained by Au Pair Care, which gave us peace of mind. Most moms are nervous about having someone take care of their baby, so peace of mind is worth a lot.”   The Curkowski Family



During the Au Pair Academy program, au pairs attend small group sessions that provide in-depth information on elements of child safety, behavior and development. Au Pair Care au pairs participate in activities that will help reinforce learning, including what to do in an emergency, age appropriate indoor and outdoor activities and child nutrition. Each of these exercises increases confidence, thoughtful decision-making and prepares your au pair for a successful experience caring for your children.

The Au Pair Care Au Pair Academy training program is also a great way for au pairs to share questions and concerns in a supportive environment. Au pairs become fast friends and frequently stay in touch once they are in their host communities.
