[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I always look for a few things: 1. Someone who has younger siblings; 2. Someone who has worked a full-time job; and 3. Someone who does not have a housekeeper at home. I have had 4 wonderful au pairs. All have extended. All still keep in touch. [/quote] Seconding all of this great advice plus look for someone that is interested in kids as a career - a teacher for example. You will also probably need to set the expectation. We have this built into our APs work time once per week to come up with activity ideas to make sure the kids aren't just in front of the TV all the time.[/quote]
