[quote=Anonymous]We had au pairs for many years, the majority of which was when our kids were old enough to be in school all day. It was great for us. They got the kids ready and off to school in the morning, helped get lunches packed and watched the kids in the afternoon and any breaks. Our au pairs loved the free time and we loved having someone who could help with getting the kids out the door in the morning. We had great au pairs and since we asked so little of them they often volunteered to help on weekends if they were around (driving kids to sports practice, etc) even though we could easily do it ourselves. The one issue we did have is we started one au pair during the school year and it was a hard transition to summer when suddenly she was full time instead of a few hours a week, so you’ll want to be very clear that the school year will be nice but they should see summer coming.[/quote]
