[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would say if you have less than 3-4 months left and she is great, just keep her, but if more I would probably rematch.[/quote] OP here. Sounds like most people are sticking with it. Anyone decide to give it up? We have 5.5 months left. [/quote] We gave it up. Ours had about 4 months left with us but planned to extend (not necessarily with us). We left the program because we’d have a parent home for most of those 4 months, had no interest in trying to gamble on whether we’d be able to get a new au pair, and just didn’t want to deal with another person around right now while we didn’t need her. [i]She wasn’t adding a ton of value for the space and resources (both physical and mental) necessary to host her.[/i] [/quote] This. We let ours go too. We pretty much cut bait when Virginia went on the long quarantine. I knew I did not want to be stuck in our home with another person that was not related to us.[/quote]
