[quote=Anonymous]We just recently got a new au pair, and this is the first time our au pair's birthday has come up within the first month of her arriving (just how it worked out). We usually know the au pair better and have a good idea of the mesh with the family and what they like to determine birthday gifts- but it being this early we are at a real loss as to what/how much to give her. What are other people getting au pairs for birthdays? Is there an idea of a budget people try to stick to? Another factor- all of our prior au pairs had really melded into family. This new au pair treats the position as a job, and has made it clear she does not see the program as a family/cultural meld. She does not want to participate in family events, activities, games, etc. That's fine- we can accept that, but it's making it harder to think about gifts/ how much to spend under the circumstances.
