[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would rather my kids speak French... If nanny is otherwise excellent, would not be a problem to me. Depends on how much you need to communicate. On second thought, if she is in the country for long time, why didn't she improve her English? and if she is a recently come, she cannot have possibly acquired lots of good recommendations. Just my thoughts.[/quote] We've only had Spanish speaking nannies and our children speak perfect Spanish, like natives speakers. This more than outweighs the inevitable problem about not being able to explain how the high tech appliance works the first time around. To the person who would rather have their children speak French, you're stuck in the 1950s. There are less than 2MM French speakers in the US vs. close to close to 100MM Spanish speakers. Besides, you can just send your children to Rochambeau (if you can afford it). [/quote]
