[quote=Anonymous]I used to get so tense when our aupair would want to have a long conversation about her day or using the car after work, etc, while I was trying to get out the door in the morning. It was like she didn't even recognize the cues or pitch in to help me get the kids out the door either. I agree with above. Put her on the clock for an extra bit of time to discuss the next day. Use a calendar app (we used cozi) to send notifications when plans change. The benefit of an aupair should be flexibility and getting to know your caregiver. If you have neither or it's making life difficult, address it before resentment builds.[/quote]
