[quote=Anonymous]You can do a search on this board. 'Which agency' is probably the single most asked question on this forum. Agreed with others. Chores accepted are limited to what is specifically for the children: laundry, cooking/feeding, minimal cleaning of kids' room/bath. Food shopping only if it's related to the kids meals. You *can* find a responsible, excellent au pair, but only 10% of the success has to do with the agency. The rest is all about your ability to screen/select the right person, and some of it is luck. Also remember that you have to do this year after year, so statistically, you won't find a responsible, excellent person every year (a language requirement makes it more challenging. It's feasible, we have done it, but challenging). You may want to adjust your expectations going into this process.[/quote]
