...E-mails began filling my inbox and host families were interested in speaking with me!
"Hello Sarah!
We have a potential host family for you! ...Please read through the family’s profile, and let us know what you think. If you are interested in speaking with them, please send them an email at the address included in the profile..."
"Hello Sarah! Here is another family for you to talk to.... who I have been working with an placed their last 2 au pairs who have really enjoyed this family! They wanted to mention to Sarah that they are coffee fanatics and quite often scout Sydney for the best coffee so Sarah might just really like this family! They also have 3 children and are hoping she can make contact with them!"
"I have a 3rd family of mine... who also live near Bondi and they have 2 very cute daughters! The au pairs that stay with this family LOVE them! They are very generous nice people.They would like to meet Sarah in person as well as (host mum) is travelling to LA in September. If Sarah could get in touch with them to work out a plan that would be great!You have a lot of interest, Sarah! This is great!"
"I have a lovely family in Melbourne who LOVED your profile. They live really close to the CBD and the beach and all the action! I think this could be a good fit if you would like to get in touch with them that would be great."
And so, long story short, I reached out to a few families and was fortunate enough to arrange a meeting in Beverly Hills with the mom of my "first choice" host family over coffee and I very much enjoyed my time with her. This weekend, I was made an offer and I've signed the agreement. I cannot wait to meet the rest of the family... I'm moving to Rose Bay in the eastern suburbs of Sydney! It's time to start booking flights.
