Concert in the Park!
We will meet at Parkers Lake Park in Plymouth at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday August 17th, so we can get a place to sit together and we will have our continuing education component prior to the concert. The concert starts at 7 p.m.
Bring along a blanket or lawn chair to sit on, beverages (no alcohol is allowed in the park) and a picnic snack or whatever you may want. The concert is free so will just have an enjoyable time together.
It will be a chance to say goodbye to our leaving au pairs - Emilia, Laura, Elvis, Pia and hello to our new arrivals - Natalia (Brazil), Samantha (S. Africa), and Rebecca (Germany).
The park is located at 15205 County Rd 6, Plymouth, MN 55447

Au Pairs Learn Bicycle Safety at Trailhead
No Comment |Posted by: tkapaun on April 21, 2010
According to the National Safe Kids Campaign, each year more children are injured by bicycles than by any other consumer product, except the automobile. In an effort to keep area children injury-free while riding their trikes and bikes this summer, Cultural Care Au Pair partnered with Trailhead Cycling last Sunday to teach au pairs how to be safe with their kids on bikes this summer.

No Comment |Posted by: tkapaun on March 11, 2010
Hi Everyone,
It seems the MN weather is not cooperating with us again this month…so change of plans for tonight. We are not going to the snowmobile races in the rain! We will meet at the New Hope Cinema and Grill in New Hope for a movie instead! The movie is “The Spy Next Door” Admission to the movie is $3.00 and they only accept cash for admission to the movie. Once inside it is set up like a restaurant and you can order food/snacks/drinks etc. They will accept credit cards/debit cards for FOOD ONLY. You must have cash to get into the movie. The movie starts at 6 p.m. so plan to be there by 5:45 if possible. We will meet inside and I will get there early to save some seats. Let me know if you are planning to bring a guest otherwise we have a small group this month. See you there!
