Let Us Take You Out to the Ballgame

We’ve been invited to join other groups of au pairs and their host families in the Washington Metropolitan Area to watch the Nationals play the New York Mets on Saturday, June 6, 2009. If enough of you wish to go, we would need to leave Salisbury at 3:30 p.m. for the 7:00 p.m. game.
Though many of you may be Orioles fans (So am I. I’m also a NY Mets fan.), it’s always good to scope out what the other team is doing.
Au Pairs and Host Families, please check your email for details. If you did not receive my message, let me know!
CCAP Au Pair Ricardo Wins IAPA Au Pair of the Year 2009

Jet lagged CCAP Local Childcare Coordinators on their way to the National Meeting in Los Angeles got a boost last weekend. A young man riding shotgun in the shuttle with them turned around and asked, “Are you au pairs?” After a bit of laughter we explained that we were LCCs. He nodded knowingly and said, “I’m an au pair… I am Ricardo.” At this point the lethargic LCCs shrieked, “Ricardo!” while two middle-aged men on their way to a Hollywood autograph show looked confused and wondered if Bon Jovi had hitched a ride with us from LAX.
Ricardo is a star! But, more than that, he is an example of the quality of the young people from all over the world who are accepted to be CCAP au pairs. For more information about this wonderful young man, check this out:
