[quote=Anonymous]Yes, as much transparency as possible to set expectations is helpful. This required us to do some advanced travel planning so that we would explain we have certain trips we cannot take au pair with us. For most au pairs, family trips are not their idea of a "vacation" - so most are happy to stay home and utilize the time as vacation. If you're not sure about your plans, you can set up the expectation that "Unfortunately, we are not able to take our au pair on most trips with us. However, we will let you know what those dates are in advanced so that you can plan your days off." With our rockstar au pairs, we would use our airline miles to buy them a ticket while we were on travel.[/quote]
