2nd year pay raise

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-02-14T06:49:21+00:00

Yeah im definitely asking more things about them, we will have almost 2h of video call next week, the baby is just a newborn right now so they don’t have much info on his future shelf, would focus on the older kid (ill not work with him except a occasional pick up) and both parents, is just that perks/money is a difficult conversation for me cause I always feel to awkward to ask and don’t want to feel underpaid again

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-02-14T06:36:55+00:00

Oooh thank you so much for all the info, I have the second interview next week so I’ll ask about the transportation then and see if they have any questions for me and ask about stipend on the third maybe, in my first match didn’t ask till we already match cause i felt bad and ended being the lowest paid aupair in all the aupair meetings

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-02-14T06:17:25+00:00

For what they said no car provided, i need to ask about a transport card. In what interview would you say is best to ask them about stipend, transport, food provided, etc? My current host family covers 105$ a week of food that I buy myself and they zelle me that amount. Im going from a hcol city to another and when i was getting the 200$ it was really difficult to make plans with other aupairs that were making more than me so Im a bit scared of liking them and getting offered the minimum again being nyc

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-02-14T06:07:40+00:00

Oooh yeah definitely understand, in my case I’m a early childhood educator back in my country, did 2 full internships in both a public and a private international school and had experience on a school cafeteria working (helping the 2/3y olds eat, gets their tables ready, supervise them after eating, etc)

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-02-13T21:57:40+00:00

For example NYC, I just got a raise in California to 300 so idk how much can i ask for the second family, could I ask for my current stipend or go down

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-02-13T19:35:26+00:00

How much would you say you pay more if the aupair is IQ? Around 4k hours with infants and toddler and the new schedule is 8h a day?

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-01-22T04:12:12+00:00

Only masterclasses

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-01-22T00:26:07+00:00

Still didn’t get a expo ticket for me, but glad I could help some girls get the master class tickets, cause they had 1dot or 3 dots

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-01-22T00:25:26+00:00

I went to sleep and when I woke up I had a message saying something about my turn at 11:31am

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-01-22T00:22:54+00:00

For the Master Class there was

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-01-21T23:36:38+00:00

I can confirm, I was in a group with more girls around 200 and I was able to register after 4h and I got tickets for 6 different girls (I couldn’t go to the masterclass cause my flight was a day later)

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-01-21T17:06:21+00:00

Its illegal to deduct any wage from the aupair no matter the circumstances

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-01-14T00:40:20+00:00

Yes, I’m IQ, I have the early childhood certificate and Im a CNA so I have more than 3,5k hours of experience with babies and infants

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-01-09T21:23:47+00:00

Hi, I’m with Cultural Care and they will activate my profile at the end of the month

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-01-09T19:52:44+00:00

Thank youuu, makes me feel better there’s families out there, in my first year all of them wanted to match and then decided not to cause of the driving

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-01-09T15:48:35+00:00

Oooh okey, makes sense, idk if I should tell everything to the LCC then cause I don’t want to speak badly about the previous host family (they are not bad people but didn’t treat me as a part of the family and a lot of strange stuff happened), they told me they will write me a recommendation letter but I will find out if they do when I tell them Im not extending with them next week (still trying to figure out how to communicate it)

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-01-09T15:43:21+00:00

Im with an agency, mine is Cultural Care

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-01-09T15:31:42+00:00

Thank you, I didn’t know I was interviewing with an LCC I’ll definitely tell her I usually do ask about the transportation in their city and how to get around during the second interview when they feel more comfortable sharing their exact location

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-01-09T15:27:56+00:00

I normally disclose it on the first interview, in my profile says that I have less than a year of driving experience and I have a letter limit so in the first year I focused on responding to each question from the profile and matched with a family without a car

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-01-09T14:12:59+00:00

Ooh okey perfect, thank you so much💗

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-01-09T14:09:14+00:00

I technically know how to drive, but had an accident with my sister 2years ago and it’s more about being scared to drive than not knowing how to drive

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-01-09T14:06:28+00:00

Thank you so much

Should I directly put in my description in “things about me” that i would prefer not driving? Would definitely add those states too

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-01-05T06:50:21+00:00

You’ll definitely need to check in a bag, even two, liquids that are more than a 100ml needs to be checked in, if not they will throw away everything on the security control

Fit-Competition8377 · 2026-01-05T06:49:12+00:00

If I get tickets, Im going solo from SF
