[quote=Anonymous]After 4 months of working for us, our nanny/housekeeper took a 2 week paid vacation and then just quit. Whatever. So we are considering trying an au pair. The issue is that our children are in school all day and we would really only use the au pair about 2 hours a day most days and full time when the children are on their fall, Christmas, and spring breaks (totaling only about 3 months a year, as they always go to summer camp). We would pay regular pay for the au pair, but I'm wondering whether such an arrangement would pose problems. (I've heard so many horror stories that I'm wondering whether a family's responsibilities include keeping the au pair occupied so that she's not bored.) I would appreciate any insights. [/quote]
