[quote=Anonymous]Yes, we used Expert Au Pair this year and our agency costs were lower - $6500. We used Au Pair International the last two years and their costs were similar ($6500), but they added a new web interface this year and increased fees by $500. Many will complain about the issues with rematch when youre with a smaller agency due to a smaller rematch pool, but we've liked the boutique feeling of working with a smaller business.  We did have a rematch the first year, and had to wait for an out of country au pair, but luckily had family to help for 3 weeks (yes, we were able to get an out of country person in under 4 weeks). We were able to match through Expert- they have fewer profiles, however, still a few good ones.  For us, $2K less in agency fees gives us more flexibility to put that money towards the au pair directly.

Yes, Expert will recommend that you can post your own profile through a 3rd party website. Again it means more "heavy lifting" for the host family to find candidates, but it's a trade-off for the lower fees.  [/quote]
