We are a family of 5 living in a small town in Iowa called Peosta, close to Dubuque. We have had an Au Pair before and it was a wonderful experience. We live in a small, quiet and friendly community. The father and adult nephew reside together with two children ages 2 and 9, while the mother is away in Chicago for work. We are a busy, loving and caring family looking to open our hearts and minds to another member.

We would like for the Au Pair to be responsible for our children’s morning routine, getting them ready for school, pack lunches, etc. The children are ages 9 and 2. The 9-year-old would need his lunch packed and to ensure that his backpack is ready for school. He will need to be dropped off at the bus stop, and the 2 year old will need to be dropped off at day care. The children will need to be picked up from the bus stop and day care at the end of the day. on certain days, The children will need to be dropped off to activities such as swimming and soccer practice. The types of activities and their swimming will vary throughout the year.
In the past, when we were all living together in Asbury, we were able to fulfill all these duties, however since the mother moved to Chicago, this has not been possible. Keep in mind that both the father and the adult nephew will be available to help assume some of the aforementioned duties, but not on a consistent basis. We will ensure close and reliable communication with the au pair to make arrangements as the circumstances change.
