[quote=Anonymous]There is an AP section in the nanny section.  There are also numerous Facebook groups for HP.  Whether or not the agency “allows” you to speak to the family that a rematch AP is coming from or going to, there are several ways to try to get in touch with them.  If you choose not to, that’s your choice.  But why you would EVER take a rematch without discussing with the family... I truly don’t understand that.

And anyone considering getting an AP (or making any equivalent big decisions) should be doing plenty of research.  That includes the requirements for young people to join the J-1 program, who the local representatives are (LCC for CCAP, called other things for the other agencies), how well the company checks their APs/BPs, how rematches are handled, how refunds/credits are handled, etc.

Frankly, I agree with PP.  Most APs/BPs are either stellar or awful.  A lot depends on what you discuss in your conversations.  The vast majority of families spend a LOT of time getting to know an AP before making an offer.[/quote]
