I am a Local Childcare Coordinator in Humble, TX who would love to talk with you if you might be interested in an affordable childcare alternative, hosting an Au Pair. Our Au Pairs come from foreign countries (you choose) and they live in your home for 1 year (possilby longer) in exchange for a small stipend and room and board. They are obviously available to care for your children, run errands associated with the children, light housekeeping/laundry/cooking pertaining to the children,etc). There are currently approximately 20 AU Pairs in my group alone with thousands of them across the US. If you are interested, you can e-mail me or go to the website www.culturalcare.com and see for yourself how exciting it is. If you do go on-line and decided to fill out an application, please make sure you enter my name when they ask how you heard about Cultural Care. Thanks
