The payment is extremely low if you…

The payment is extremely low if you live in an expensive state. In the us if you don't have a car is impossible to move and there's no requirement for the family to give it to you. One weekend a month and one day a week is so little time to do things. It's a good experience but you depend so so much on the extras that a family can give you and it feels all the time that you have to be super thankful or you'll get worse treatment. So, to sum up, i think you should regulate the price and the schedule to make it fair for everyone.

APIA is a company that sells very well and seems to help host families a lot, but on the au pair side, they are negligent. How is it possible that you have a person *working* in your house, taking care of 3 and 4 children simultaneously for 4.35 dollars an hour? This is not a cultural exchange program, it is slavery. It is not worthy for a person to work so much for so little. They justify it by saying that we receive food and a place to live: APIA does not ensure that the conditions inside the host's homes are decent. Au Pairs ended up with physical and mental health issues.I do not recommend APIA or the au pair program in general.

The Au Pair in America program

The Au Pair in America online portal is very efficient, as well as the application and documentation process. What leaves a lot to be desired is the support for Au Pairs when we are with the family, no matter how good the family is, the service in general is very tiring and stressful, we work as much as anyone else 45 hours a week earning only 4 dollars per hour , this is a shame, the excuse for paying so little is that we are in the country to study and we live with the family, however the scholarship is only 500 dollars per year and the study hours are only 72 hours, the study is a lot weak, and can be completed in a short time, does not justify paying such a low salary. Being in another country, working a lot, earning so little and so many other problems make many Au Pairs psychologically ill and the agency does not provide support in this regard,
