[quote=Anonymous]We have an au pair for the flexibility, pretty much the main reason. I have a strange job where I working while the kids are in school but also have 2-4 nights per week where I’m out between 5-10pm, and there’s no daycare or nanny that wants those hours. We’ve been lucky and had overall great experiences even with mediocre au pairs they’ve all been good with our kids overall and our kids love them. On ap #6 now who just extended for her 3rd term (we love her!) and have been hosting since our youngest was @1 and oldest 6. Will keep hosting until at least the older 2 are old enough to get themselves around after school (we live in nyc so eventually they’ll take the subway). But for us, convenience wins out. We heavily stress that we need a flexible ap and have always had them happy to work just afternoons/evenings with the evenings changing most weeks. [/quote]
