Family's Message to Au Pairs

Dear Au Pair: We are an interesting family to come to live with. We all have different nationalities ( German, Argentine and USA). We enjoy the outdoors and have had great experience with our last Au Pair. Our kids loved her and are still talking about her. Nina is 4 and is very amusing and lively; she can play in 3 languages with you. Nico is 1 year old and a pleasure to be around with as he is learning to walk. As only one of us parents speaks German we seek a young woman who can speak German to the children. One of us is a scientist working for a pharmaceutical company, the other works part-time as an art therapist. We live in Arlington which is half an hour away from Boston by public transportation so it is easy to get around from here to visit Boston and surroundings. We know a number of families with Au-pairs so it won't be difficult to make friends here. Warm regards, Marina, Stefan, Nina and Nico
