Hello, my name is Asami the manager of AJ(Aupair Japan).

That is why I established AJ.

What's Aupair?

"Aupair" meanings the same as "Au Pair". We just use "Aupair".

Aupair/Au pair is an anglicization of the French term "au pair," which means "on par" or "equal to" and describes a young person living on an equal basis with a host family in a foreign country. The Aupair helps the family with childcare, light housework, or both while staying as a guest of the family and generally receiving a small allowance (or pocket money). An Aupair will be accepted into the host family as an extended family member. Both the family and Aupair are expected to respect cultural differences and display tolerance towards one another. (**Please visit this link for more information.)

AJ has a lot of excellent potential Japanese aupairs. They love children, studying English and learning foreign cultures. Japanese can be very honest and kind. They will become a splendid aupair for you and your family.
And you must love him/her as a member of your family!

The Key benefits:

* AJ is a matching service specialized for Japanese Aupairs: Most of them are females, but some are males. AJ also has many professional childcare givers.
* AJ has flexible styles: AJ is more flexible than any other Aupair matching site! Feel free to request anything of AJ!
* Easy steps: Since I used to be an Aupair, I know people who need Aupairs are very busy. Therefore AJ offers very simple steps! All you have to do is just fill in the request form, send it and check for emails from AJ!
* You don't need to waste your time: Unlike other matching sites, you don't need to waste your time finding Aupairs online. AJ chooses several candidates who meet with your requirements and send you a list.

If you are looking for a Japanese Aupair, AJ is the best place for you!!
