[quote=Anonymous]How long has she been with you and how is her English? Our first ap had pretty poor English skills (not a problem as we speak her native language and wanted her to speak with the kids in it too). But even when we spoke with her in her native language she was extremely unresponsive. She was kind of a dud personality wise and had trouble relating to my older kids but she was a fine au pair and was great with my baby. She just didn't have anything interesting to say. When she did finally open up a bit (like 10 months into the year) it was to ask me about how to get into free concerts of boy bands which I knew basically nothing about. So we just had very different interests and priorities in life, but she was otherwise pleasant and as I said, fine with the kids. Dh really disliked her though, he thought she wasn't smart and had nothing to say, which was kind of true. So I think maybe it's her personality or maybe a language barrier? [/quote]
