[quote=Anonymous]Have a very clear conversation with her. Acknowledge it is not what was expected, but is what is needed, and it is now her job. Our au pair also decided our two older kids were no longer her responsibility (other than she’d make meals, but even then she just ignored our oldest if he didn’t come to the table - and he NEEDS to be made to come to the table because he takes a medication that suppresses hunger, but his blood sugar will crash without food). We ended up sending her to rematch because it was not worth it to us to have an au pair doing only half the job, as the other half the job still required almost a full day of attention from me. We needed someone who was either going to do the job or acknowledge she couldn’t/wouldn’t and just move on. In your situation, I’d hope she’d understand that it is not an option to decide she is an au pair to only one of the children. She needs a reset. Get your LCC or area director involved as needed.
