[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I lived like that as an Au Pair at 19. Would not do it now as a mature woman even though I live alone. You might find someone but it won't be easy.[/quote]We had a 21 yo live in nanny during covid who we basically treated like an au pair. All food in our kitchen was available to her and she could add reasonable requests to the shopping list. She'd feed herself with the kids for breakfast and lunch. She had dinner with the family (cooked by me or my DH) every night unless she was going out. She went home to stay at her parent's house on weekends by her choice. It cut down on her covid exposure since she often only saw us during the week. She wasn't one to go out on weeknights, preferring to text and video chat with friends. If she'd been living at home she'd have contact with her parents and siblings, all of whom were working in person at different places.[/quote] She was 21. What's your point?[/quote]
