The Grims Homer family and their au pair Paola Andrea

2022 Host Family of the Year

Nominated by their au pair Paola Andrea from Colombia

My host family is the dream of every au pair! They really enjoy being the best hosts, they care about my dreams and my beliefs. They make me feel as if I’m in my home country Colombia. They look for ways to make me feeI supported, cared, and most importantly loved. I look up to my host family for advice and my time with them has taught me valuable lessons that will make an impact in my development as a citizen of the world!

They were supportive since the beginning and they were open to learn more about my traditions and goals in life. Since that first time I spoke to them and saw Bailey, I realized this was meant to be! They enjoy being good hosts, they made me feel in Colombia. I noticed that there was a genuinely bond between us, they have even shared calls with me and my family.

What else could I ask for? They are perfect, they contribute so much to my personal and professional growth. Being with them has strengthened me, this is much more that I could have ever dreamed of before venturing into this experience. I feel infinitely grateful, they are the best and I love them very much. We are a family, we listen to each other, we understand each other, we take care of each other, we are united, WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS.
