As a parent of a two year old and a 7 month old boys, safety is of up most importance to me. I am constantly aware of my surroundings and what might be unsafe for my two very curious little guys. AuPairCare understands that Child safety is a major concern for American parents, especially when they are considering child care providers. That is why Au Pair's with AuPairCare all across the country have been attending various types of safety training during the month of March.
Here in Knoxville, TN Au Pairs from countries such as Brazil and China attended a fire safety training Sunday afternoon. The training was lead by Captain Paul Trumpore who instructed the Au Pairs on what it means to have "An Attitude of Safety". The Au Pairs were also given a Fire Extinguisher Training in which they were able to pratice using a fire extinguisher properly.
Au Pair Care, an au pair agency that matches American families with international au pairs, recently announced its new SafetyCare Training Program. This program provides all Au Pair Care au pairs with CPR and First Aid certification training by the American Heart Association – a major differentiator in the au pair space. It also provides au pairs with enhanced safety training skills in the categories of driving, household and ongoing child care safety.

As a parent, I am thrilled to see that AuPairCare is taking the issue of child safety so seriously. I am confidant that parents who are considering their childcare options would be drawn to a company who has made child safety a top priority when training their Au Pairs.
I believe that the fire safety training held here in Knoxville on Sunday will benefit the Au Pairs, their Host Families, and most importantly the children that they care for.
