[quote=Anonymous]Aupairs do not have any experience juggling children of different ages. Their "experience" is often at centers where they are not the only adult on duty and get multiple breaks. If they do have babysitting experience, it's usually family members and they don't need to be the disciplinarian or the one to schedule things. Some aupairs just have the ability to do so, but most do not. I would try the schedule, but if it's like my last two aupairs, forget it about having it followed. Simply hope that the kids are alive, clean and the house is still standing when you return. We had a mixed bag of aupair experiences. If it isn't better by now, it usually doesn't improve much. They simply rematch to a family who doesn't expect them to actually do anything. [/quote]
