With an au pair, enjoy your mornings in Tennessee, Memphis, Germantown, Collierville, Cordova, Bartlett, and Southaven, Mississippi areas

Are your mornings the most stressful time of day? 

With an AuPairCare au pair, you can enjoy a relaxing morning enjoying the time with your children.

Or, your au pair can get the children ready for the day and you can get to work early.  Then, you might be able to leave on time and enjoy dinner with your family.

That's how a flexible au pair schedule can help you manage your work day and your family time.

Au pairs provide pre-screened, experienced live-in childcare for about $340/week ($7.50 an hour) regardless of the number of children in your family.

Rising cost of Childcare in Memphis, TN and across the Country


According to the U.S. Census, the cost of child care increased twice as fast as the median income of families with children in the year 2000, and continues to rise. In addition, a recent survey by Kelton Research indicated that Americans have noticed significant increases in their expenditures on gas, food, utilities, insurance, phone, Internet, and cable bills just in the past three months. The ever increasing cost of living in the U.S. often requires both parents to work outside of the home, making affordable child care a necessity.

Did you know that an AuPairCare au pair costs about $340/week ($7.50 an hour) regardless of the number of children in your family? No other childcare option maintains the original price as the number of children increases.

How Host Families and Au Pairs can be prepared for Severe Weather

In light of the recent severe tornado activity in many areas of the U.S., here is some good advice about what to do when a tornado threatens our area:

Seek shelter immediately! If you are at home, go to a pre-designated shelter area such as a safe room, or basement (lowest building level). If there is no basement, go to the center of an interior room on the lowest level (closet, bathroom, interior hallway) away from windows, doors, and outside walls. Put as many walls as possible between you and the outside. Get under a sturdy table and use your arms to protect your head and neck. Do not open windows. If you are in a vehicle, get out immediately and go to the lowest floor of a sturdy, nearby building or a storm shelter. If you are outside with no shelter, lie flat in a nearby ditch or depression and cover your head with your hands. Be aware of the potential for flooding. Do not get under an overpass or bridge. You are safer in a low, flat location. Never try to outrun a tornado in urban or congested areas in a car or truck. Instead, leave the vehicle immediately for safe shelter.

I know that many au pairs may be unsure what to do in the case of a severe storm. It is important to talk with your Host Family and be prepared!
