[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We tend to stick to one country.  Then we look for age (19-21), driving skills (usually own a car, drive often), and good photos, and no boyfriend.  We want someone who is fun, has nice looking friends and is independent, and who will have a good time experiencing the US when they are not watching my kids.  We want them to have experience watching kids all day and who has worked full-time or part-time for several months at one job, not just babysitting at night, and ideally with some experience helping with homework.  We want someone who has enough on-going experience with kids that we don't think they're coming just to party though.  We haven't had to worry too much about English but we want them to be able to read to my younger one.[/quote]

I'm curious what country you stick to and why?   We've had experience with au pairs from the France and Brazil and been pretty lucky with both.    I do think that Brazilian Au Pair had an attitude that might have been a little bit more compatible with our family.   But the jury's really still out on that one....[/quote]
