Akiko Selmon

Hi there! My name is Akiko Selmon, and I’m the InterExchange Au Pair USA Local Coordinator for Dallas, Plano, Carrollton, Irving, Garland, Denton, and Richardson, Texas. I am from Japan and have lived in the United States for over 10 years.  I have an extensive background in international cultural exchange and have worked with thousands of international students and advised them on issues including immigration, cultural adjustment and academic issues. I live with my family in Mckinney, Texas and enjoy working with our wonderful host families and au pairs from all over the world!

Families often ask me what is the difference between au pairs and nannies or day care services. First of all, hosting an au pair is usually less expensive than hiring a nanny! The average cost of hosting an au pair is $340 per week. There are no per-child fees, and you are getting a pre-screened and qualified child care provider who will live with your family and become a reliable extra adult living in your home.

As a Local Coordinator, my job is to work with families in the North Dallas area, and help them navigate the au pair hosting process – from the day you submit your application, the Au Pair USA staff and I will work closely with you to help you find the perfect au pair for your family. I love working with families, because I get to meet so many wonderful people from within the community. Many of the families in the program rejoin year after year, and host au pairs from several different countries, so I really get to know them and enjoy having them in the Au Pair USA “family”!

If I can answer any questions about the program, please contact me. I look forward to working with you to make hosting an au pair a rewarding and fun experience! Call for more information, or if you’re ready to apply, you can sign up today using our online host family application.
