Au Pairs

Only exchange visitors placed through a Department of State-designated au pair sponsor are authorized to work as an au pair. Au pairs provide child care to a host family’s children for a year in return for room and board, a weekly stipend and up to $500 in education costs.

Because the host family provides remuneration in exchange for regular child care services, the host family is the au pair’s employer and must complete Form I-9 for the Au pair.

Foreign academic students (F-1 nonimmigrants) cannot work as au pairs or nannies unless USCIS issues them an Employment Authorization Document based on severe economic hardship.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

Do you have someone specific in mind?  Why is a US citizen or US resident not available for your nanny needs?

Instead of posting random, short questions without context, it would be helpful if you could provide some background, so we can better help you.

 

Tell us a bit more about yourself: which country, educational background, age, etc.

 

And then tell us what your purpose is in the US. Do you want to study, work, find a way to stay permanently?
