Laser Questing in April
No Comment |Posted by: swildeboer on May 11, 2009
Imagine, chasing each other with laser guns, through a black light maze with techno music in the background. That’s what we did for our meeting in April. Another au pair group joined ours and we had a great time. Add some pizza and soda and you have an aerobic and tasty evening!

Everybody had a Birthday to Celebrate at our March Meeting
No Comment |Posted by: swildeboer on May 11, 2009
We enjoyed having one, big, birthday party in March to celebrate Everybody’s Birthday! Everyone brought a gift, several bakers made cakes, I added the candles and we all sang happy birthday to each other. Everyone brought a gift, so we drew names to exchange gifts and spent time getting to know each other while we opened presents.

February - Facials!
No Comment |Posted by: swildeboer on May 11, 2009
For our February meeting we watched a movie and made our own facials. The chocolate facial was good enough to eat - just ask Victoria! Everyone took them home to enjoy. Stephanie had a little helper who enjoyed applying her chocoate facial.

Au Pairs in the News: Obama Inauguration Article
No Comment |Posted by: swildeboer on May 10, 2009
I chose our January meeting to coincide with the presidential inauguration of Barak Obama. We watched together and had a very interesting discussion about their reactions to the event and to the election process in the United States. I contacted some local newspapers and asked if they would be interested in your opinion and they were! They asked me to write an article and submit it. It was published in it’s entirety in the Los Altos Town Crier, and as part of an editorial in the Mountain View Voice. So, you’re famous! Take a look and send this link to your families about your local au pair group.
