Washington Monument -- Washington, DC

Lower Eastern Shore au pairs will cross the Chesapeake Bay and travel to Washington, DC on Saturday, September 19, 2009, as part of their Explore the Eastern Shore and More program.   After a day of visiting monuments, museums and more the group will join about 70 other Cultural Care au pairs for an international dinner in Great Falls, Virginia before heading home again.

Reminders for the trip have been sent via email to the au pairs.  If you have any questions, please contact Local Coordinator, Nancie Meng at nancie.meng@lcc.culturalcare.com.

CCAP President Presents: From the Heart

Posted by: nmeng on September 9, 2009

Last week we announced the launch of CCAP’s new online community.  This week Cultural Care Au Pair President, Dave Fougere, added another resource for Host Families and Au Pairs. And he is providing even more transparency about CCAP’s programs, through his new blog Speaking From the Heart.

Dave, the father of two boys and a host father himself, hopes to interact with Host Families, Au Pairs, Cultural Care staff and others in the global discussion, so join the conversation by making a comment, sharing a story or concern.

As Dave says, “It’s about my kids, too.”

Join Cultural Care’s On-Line Community

Meet other Host Families and discuss all things CCAP

Cultural care has launched a new, innovative on-line resource for Host Families.  In the Cultural Care Community families can ask questions, share ideas, ”best practices” they use with their au pair, report a problem they are having or give praise.  Cultural Care staff, LCCs and other host families join the discussion and can help answer your questions.  

This new community is not meant to replace the customer service structure and systems that we already have in place, but rather to give host families a public forum to share with us and to connect with other families. It’s simple to join the conversation. Just visit http://community.culturalcare.com and let us know what you think!
