Meet Sarah, Program Manager
"I’ve been with Cultural Care for over 10 years and am passionate about cultural exchange and its positive impact on families. Seeing how it broadens children’s perspectives and creates lasting connections is incredibly rewarding. I’m also a mom to my daughter, Mae, who was born deaf. My family is learning ASL together, and I serve as the secretary for Hands & Voices, supporting families with children who are deaf or hard of hearing. I’m especially passionate about helping newly diagnosed families find the resources and support they need. Both personally and professionally, I’m dedicated to creating inclusive, supportive spaces where all children can thrive."

Hear from our host families

There’s just an extra level of comfort knowing that your kids are being cared for by someone who genuinely loves them and doesn’t approach it as just another job.

She loved telling stories about her godson and treasured the special role she played in his life. Although I’m not a religious person, I asked her to be the honorary godmother for Aiden and Asha. She responded with tears of joy. Then and now, I still feel chills knowing how much she loves my children.

My husband and I have four kids 10 and under and live far from family. [With an au pair], as parents we are more fulfilled, and the kids are cared for. It is a perfect fit for our family dynamic.

And when asked about their ethnic heritage they said, ‘We are Brazilian’. Although Dan and I both have North European ancestry, who are we are argue? That’s the beauty of the au pair program—thanks to Ina, they are little Brazilians!

Spanish flows often through our home, accompanied with music and singing. Even our shy 3-year-old son has broken out of his shell, and has been spotted salsa dancing on multiple occasions! She has quickly become part of our family, and we can't imagine what we would do without her.
