What our Area Directors say...

In July, I will celebrate two years for thriving (not working, thriving) with Apex Social Group with a total of fours years working in the CULTURAL EXCHANGE world. Being an Area Director, I have six ingredients that makes me thrive as an employee, a mom, and a ambassador to California and as a person.

− Jane Smith, Area Director, San Francisco, CA USA −


The six ingredients are:

  1. Work that helps others: relationships with the host families, Care Professionals and most of all, enhancing the lives of the host children with and without special needs I love this the most!

  2. Engaging work that lets me enter a state of flow (freedom, flex hours, variety, clear tasks, feedback, fun)

  3. Supportive colleagues with Apex Social Group in three continents with new ways of continuing learning and embracing your passions with who you are with respect, support and collaboration.

  4. A job that fits my personal life: I can make school field trips, attend my son's baseball games, take a walk with friends in the morning, build amazing relationships with unique hardworking families around the SF Bay Area, support host families on my time, engage with the professional au pairs with fun local outings and yes, there is an occasional, 'drop everything moment'. However, those are like a unicorn, very rare and I sleep every night stress-free with a smile on my face.

  5. Ambassador to California: I love the SF Bay Area, the beautiful state of California and the awesomeness of the USA. San Francisco has long followed the beat of its own drum. Morphed and molded by its communities, the SF Bay area has been the heart of the bohemian lifestyle, the epicenter of the civil rights movement and the launching point of the technology era. Today, San Francisco is a complete universe in and of itself: I love being part of the 'cultural bridge' connecting our Apex PROaupair community of kindness to the strong sense of pride in the region. There are so many fun things to do in San Francisco for all age groups and interests covering everything imaginable: colorful festivals, mind-blowing concerts, unlimited dining options, diverse ethnic neighborhoods and shopping, urban adventure and recreational pursuits, history and architectural walks, fine arts and culture – the list is endless in the SF Bay Area.

  6. Young Professionals keep me young! With a long runway in front of them, professional au pairs from Apex PROaupair have a high success rate. They are future focused and come with every reason to be optimistic about their work and career. Young professionals still find themselves in the seeing, asking, changing, doing, and discovering stages of their work life. The host family (and, yes me, the Area Director) benefits from that fresh perspective unshaded by the bias of experience. I learn from these young professionals that life is breathtakingly beautiful, exciting and even with the occasional challenge...this is what life is all about...Thriving!


Everyday I don't JUST work. I help, guide, find solutions, give, listen, make fun, share information, smile, laugh, thrive...

This is my Apex PROaupair career and it fits my life!
