An EduPair is A FAMILY MEMBER/ROLE MODEL/PRIVATE TUTOR NOT A NANNY. An EduPair lives with a family and helps out with childcare in an educational way. In exchange, EduPairs receive language and cultural development as well as food and accommodation. Generally speaking, our host families expect EduPairs to take on a positive educational role for the host kid(s)' second language study. This means teaching English through play and exploring aspects of your culture together.

I had a great time the 2,5 months where I stayed with a host family. But the first 3,5 months in Limbo where I had no host family because my host family bailed on me (not the agencies fault), was not what I signed up for. The agency provided accomodation for me while I didn't have a family, and I atended University courses everyday that the agency had paid for. Food was my main expense. So It was an okay 3,5 months, where I had friends and a everyday purpose studying Chinese. There was tho a lot of drama in the agency between the other Au Pairs and the Management. But my personal experience was pretty good all in all
