Au pairs from Italy, Germany, and the Czech Republic will be offering free face painting for kids at Brattleboro Gallery Walk on Friday, May 1, from 5 to 7:30 p.m. Ann Newsmith, local coordinator for Cultural Care Au Pair, will also be available to talk with parents about the benefits of hosting an au pair and the process of applying.
Cultural Care is the largest au pair organization in the U.S. and works through a local representative in southern Vermont to help families assess whether the program is a good fit and to assist in matching families with just the right au pair. Families provide room, board, and a welcoming environment to a young person from another country in exchange for flexible, live-in childcare. Not only convenient, hosting an au pair is often more cost-effective for families with multiple children, compared to daycare or a nanny.
Cultural Care will be on the lawn in front of Center Congregational Church, Main Street, as part of Gallery Walk’s new event, Big Blanket Super Picnic. For more information, call Ann at 802-257-4710, email ann.newsmith@lcc.culturalcare.com, or visit www.culturalcare.com/LCC/anewsmith.
