Welcome Letter to the Au Pair

Become Our Au Pair in Awesome Austin—A Life-Changing Adventure Starts Here!

Dear Amazing Au Pair,
Hello from Jon, Alayna, and our soon-to-arrive baby girl, Anya (due May the Fourth—Star Wars fans unite!). We’re the family (Yes, Jon's family is from ), and we’re bursting with excitement to invite you to join us in Austin, Texas. We’re not just looking for any au pair; we’re searching for someone special to become part of our growing family, share in our adventures, and help us create a loving, culturally rich world for Anya. Here’s why being our au pair could be the opportunity for you:

Austin: Your New Home Is a Cultural Hotspot
Picture this: sunny days exploring Zilker Park’s lush trails, a refreshing dip in Barton Springs, or swaying to live music at a downtown festival. Austin is a city that pulses with energy—think world-famous events like Austin City Limits (ACL), quirky food trucks serving up Tex-Mex and BBQ, and farmers’ markets bursting with local charm. There's even a formula 1 racing track and a huge ton of conventions of all types here. With over 250 au pairs already calling Austin home, you’ll step into a thriving community that hosts monthly fun—ice skating, line dancing, holiday parties, and more. Whether you love nature, music, or meeting people from around the globe, Austin’s got it all. Dive into the magic at Austin City Guide or Austin Texas Things to Do.

Your Warm Welcome: Thoughtful and Heartfelt
We’ve planned your arrival to feel like coming home:
 Day 1: A big welcome sign at the airport, a tour of our cozy space, and a delicious dinner to unwind.
 Day 2: A chill breakfast, a chat about routines, and a neighborhood stroll to get your bearings.
 Day 3: A special meal with our extended family—laughter, stories, and a taste of Texas hospitality.

What We Bring: Respect, Trust, and a Family Vibe
We’re all about kindness and open communication. We’ll treat you like family, valuing your help with Anya (tidying toys, prepping bottles) and your ideas for meals. We respect your space, keep things tidy together, and prioritize safety—think clear guidelines and trust. We’d love for this to feel like a partnership, where warmth and mutual support define our days. We’re beyond excited to meet you and see if our little crew feels like your next home.
With tons of excitement,

Jon, Alayna, and soon, Anya

Accommodation

We also want to make sure your experience goes beyond just childcare. Our grandparents have a beautiful farm not far from Austin, and it would be an experience of rural American life. It’s a peaceful place where you can unwind, connect with nature, and maybe even try your hand at some farm activities. Possibly, we think it would be a unique and memorable part of your time with us given your background and experiences on a farm already.

As part of our family, we’d provide perks like cell phone service, a gym membership, and a car (with insurance) to help you explore Austin and beyond. Alayna, with her background in technical writing and tutoring, would also be happy to help you improve your English if that’s one of your goals. We’ll be on parental leave from May to July, bonding with Anya, and we’d love for an Au Pair to join us on or before June 2025 so we can all get to know each other at home.
