NP. I certainly understand the concern here. But just curious how do all the single/divorced fathers with 50/50 custody handle child care with no extra help? It seems on DCUM many single/divorced mothers hire APs, even when they share custody with their ExDH. Sure some dads would find stepmothers for their kids, or get help from grandparents. But still given 50/50 is the norm in DMV area now, wouldn't there be nearly as much demand for AP from single/divorced dads as the demand from single/divorced moms? [/quote]

Yes and like PP said some au pairs travel to the other parents’ house to watch the kids but only live in one parent’s house. No switching off. Also some au pairs only work half time, when one parent needs an au pair and the other has a flexible schedule or different solutions. [/quote]
