ED Homestay is recruiting caring host families in Santa Monica, West Los Angeles, Brentwood, Westwood, and Venice for international high school students arriving in 2027 and beyond.
Receive generous compensation of $1,800 per month, along with ongoing coordination and 24/7 support from ED Homestay. Our team provides student management and guardianship services throughout the student’s stay.
Host families provide a private furnished bedroom, breakfast and dinner on weekdays, three meals on weekends, and transportation to school and school activities. Most importantly, they welcome a student into everyday family life.
Previous hosting experience is welcome but not required. Families complete an application, home screening, and background checks.
