[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are a host mother and this description fits your au pair, please be on notice that while your young sons were playing at the Barnes and Noble train set up yesterday (and one took a toy from another young child, causing much tears and screaming), your au pair not only failed to intervene -- but she failed to even look up from her phone where she was texting for 20 minutes solid. As an outsider (and host mom), I was unimpressed, and even a bit worried about whether this particular au pair gives a rats patootie about her charges. I know this is just one instant I saw. Perhaps she is a wonderful au pair who was having a family emergency, or there is some other good reason for her actions. But I thought I should post. If you think this is your au pair, you might want to take a closer look at what she is doing. P.S. No, I am not a disgruntled nanny trying to bash all au pairs. I am a host mom and have had great success with the au pair program, but this one caught my eye. These kids are very young, and in my view, need someone who is engaged.[/quote] What did you say to the au pair, OP?[/quote]
