Census Time!

Posted by: bdoorman In: Uncategorized

I got my census form today, did you?  If you so, you may be wondering if and how you can count your au pair!  Here is some helpful information!

It’s Census Time - How do I count my au pair?

As you are filling out your census forms for the 2010 census some host families are wondering should they count their au pair on the census. Here is the recommendation:

In the first section where it asks about household members there’s a separate box for live in babysitters and others who may live in the home but may not be members of the family and that’s where an au pair can be counted.

If you have any further queistons you can go to the census website at

Special news for the Doorman Family!

Posted by: bdoorman In: Uncategorized

My husband and I would like to announce that we are expecting our first child!

Our baby boy is due July 28, 2010!  We are very excited and looking forward to his arrival!

I will be taking a little bit of time off after the baby is born but, don’t worry!  Our June, July, and August Au Pair meetings will take place as planned.  If you are expecting a July au pair arrival, we have already spoken as to what will happen during that time and I will keep you up to date!  As the time grows closer, I will let you know who you will be able to contact in case you need anything and I am not available!

Thank you all for being such great au pairs and host families and so supportive of us during this great time!  We cherish your happiness and kind words!

Want to earn a FREE Disney World ticket?

Posted by: bdoorman In: Uncategorized

I went to Orlando this weekend to cheer on my friends who were running the Disney Princess Half Marathon. No matter how many times you go to Disney, the magic is always there! It is now easier than ever to go to Disney and experience the Magic! Disney has a new program called Give a Day. Get a Disney Day. They are giving away one million free Disney tickets to those who give a day of their time to volunteer.  You must register on their site and complete one of the opportunities they have listed.

I read book to a classroom at Gullet Elementary school in Lakewood Ranch.  My parents are volunteering in the lunchroom at Tatum Ridge Elementary School in Sarasota.  Friends are volunteering at “Music on Main” in Lakewood Ranch.  A quick search today reveals many opportunities to participate in a Boot Drive to benefit Muscular Dystrophy Association of the Suncoast.  There are opportunities with Make a Wish, Habitat for Humanity, Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, Girl Scouts of the Suncoast, and the Red Cross, just to name a few!  Whatever your interest, there is a volunteer opportunity available for you!

Au pairs and host families, I encourage you to take a look and sign up!  This would be a great cultural experience for your au pair and the entire family!
