The start of a new year is a quintessential time to think about how you might make long-anticipated changes, tackle “that thing” you’ve been meaning to pursue, set new resolutions, or reflect on your previous year. You even may set a goal of determining or evolving your personal “brand!” This is especially true for au pairs who are starting their journey at the beginning of the year, or for those who have returned to their home countries and are reflecting on how their new skills can enhance their resumes or post-exchange life.

In keeping with this theme, we recently challenged our au pairs to come up with a logo to describe their au pair experience in the United States — one that reflects their personal “brand.” Check out our top three submissions:

Tamires from Brazil, Hosted in Connecticut:

Lina from Colombia, Hosted in Georgia:

Sherlley from Panama, Hosted in Arizona:
