(Hello once again. i want to bore you little about my family, My name is misheal Williams and my Husband name is Michael Williams, me and my Husband are a very busy person and don't have much time to take care of our son this days so that's why we need an Au pair.



I am Glad we are in contact and i am once again thanking you for your interest on my post searching for an Au Pair for my Children's. We are Loving and Energetic Family Staying at Houston Texas USA. Am a Married Host Mom misheal Williams, i work as manager in a Bank here in Houston Texas USA which as taken a lot of my time. while my Husband too is a Married Host Dad, Michael Williams,He works as an assistant manager in the oil and gas with fixing appliances company, which it has taken a lot of his time too and chances of looking after the kids while i'm not home. i have s son name kelvin Williams he is one years old at the Baby School.Am looking for an Au Pair to care of my lovely son, monitor hist daily routine and teaches him new culture.

Our family do not like to judge a book by the cover or take gossip to determine who will be around. We always try to stay positive and find the best in anyone or any situation including the worst ones. Our Kids are energetic but delightful and We got wonderful dogs. Don't be freak out if i call them baby, because they are really my baby too and i treat him with love and care like my own kid. You don't have to worry am sure you are going to get along with them and my step daughter too because they are all friendly and like meeting new people. Esther is four years, she's welcoming and though she is young, and she love soccer, playing basketball, swimming, dancing, writing, reading, and watching movies or TV......They have a warm and friendly attitude. she like's playing a lot and i do not think you will have any problem with her and my son so far she eats and plays well. she is very intelligent and loves to take after people,this is the more reason i will appreciate someone with good qualities to be Au pair so that she doesn't take to bad influence.

You'll be working 6-7 hours a day, you are to take my little daughter to school in the morning and later go back to pick her back home from school in the afternoon. On weekends you'll take the children's out to new places like beach and other recreational places (You have free time). You are required to spend time with the kids, running errands, house cleaning and light cooking is a possibility, but not really a requirement. I prefer someone who will reinforce our desire to teach my kids responsibilities and since you are a teacher it will be easy, do not expect to undertake the children's assigned tasks but instead to find ways to encourage them to complete tasks.You will be staying with us when you get here, You will have your Private Room which will have Bathroom/Toilet, Television, Air-Conditional and Internet Computer. You will have access to the Internet and a Telephone at home to get in touch with your friends and love ones. You will be having a full weekend every 2 weeks as your off days while i will be at home to take care of the kids, you will be having all the privacy you want, so to enable you have enough time for yourself.

At first conversation was smooth and then I told him I have to come to Manila where Embassies and National Offices located to comply the requirements, he answered that I don't have to go to Manila for that and said I just have to mail to his Cultural Au Pair Agency the requirements, that was the time I doubt then I saw some posts here, I would like to know if this emails and these types of contents are legit.

Thank you So much in Advance

Split from unrelated thread.

It's a scam - The only way to become an au pair in the USA is through an authorised au pair agency and that will involve a face to face interview with a representative of the agency.

Also, the email address [email protected] is a free address, which no legitimate business would use.

Please do not tell scammers that they are listed here - it will take them seconds to change their fake details and their new details will not be listed for any future victims to find.

The writing is African, not American, and he does not know the East Coast from the West Coast. It's a scam.
