[quote=Anonymous]Lol seems like it’s a bunch of nannies posting not host families. What are all these magical child care alternatives that families are yet to discover, in the midst of a global pandemic no less? I’ll wait... yeah they don’t exist. There is a child care crisis in this country right now and the politicians in charge won’t acknowledge it or do anything to solve it. Clearly there is a huge difference in the cost of an au pair versus a nanny, a nanny could cost twice or three times what an au pair costs. Nannies are simply out of reach for many families, leaving day care as the only option and right now in a pandemic that’s simply too risky for many. There is a reason this program existed, both for host families, and for the young women and some men who relish the chance to live in the US for a couple of years. Yes of course there were the bad abusive host families and the dud Au Pairs who ruined it for the rest of us, but we can’t deny that this program fills a huge hole.[/quote]
