300 au pairs invaded downtown Chicago last Saturday, September 20th for the 2nd Annual Chicago-Area Cultural Care Au Pair Scavenger Hunt. A sea of au pairs in blue t-shirts searched for over 100 items and in the meantime got a crash course in Chicago politics, history, culture and sports.

Learn the winning team’s strategy, what superhero powers au pairs wished they had during the challenge and why au pairs really, really, really love Chicago!

Thank you to Local Childcare Coordinator Karen Relstab for submitting this video.
