[quote=Anonymous]We had four successful au pairs. My advice is to hire more for personality fit than experience unless you are hiring for infant care. For me an upbeat happy personality goes a long way toward making the au pair easy to live with and increases the odds they will be happy here. Also make sure their English is very good. Struggling today communicate just makes everything harder. FWIW we found Costa Rica and Sweden very good for English and younger au pairs. Good drivers too. [/quote]
