[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know.....I've never found the pool that great.  We've always offered the $200 stipend AR a minimum and pay the federal minimum wage including any OT if there are every hours worked 41-45. AuPair car,  dedicated AP suite, and yes...all federal holidays (they don't work when we don't work).

I'm VERY clear about that on out profile a d have socialized that on the various Facebook groups when we've needed to attract an in country AP.

So many bad APs out there,  we prefer to have the upper hand in the selection process which comes with the peace of mind our kids are win good hands.

Never had a rematch, except at the start of Covid when our AP got spooked and wants to go home. We very quickly picked up an in country AP. [/quote]

I've didnt have to pay over stipend or offer anything extravagant to match last summer. I'm not sure why a family would in order to match. You are attracting the wrong type of aupair. Offer what is fair for your schedule and the job but don't try to match like it's a bidding war.

There is zero possibility I would be guilted/forced/coerced into paying more for childcare by an aupair. [/quote]
