[quote=Anonymous]I would just put the baby in the home day care more and plan to send your 4 year old there for the summer. Au pairs are like having another kid, it's do much work for a gamble of having a glorified teenager on their phone all the time, who will most certainly wreck your car, and do shady covid stuff. Honestly, I thought it was worth it but even with our best au pair, since having the kids back in day care full time it's been so much better. They area happy and socialized from people who want to do it, not just to tour the US while doing some job on the side. It's a night and day difference between childcare providers and au pairs when it comes to little kids. If you have preteens who literally just need a qualified adult nearby or to drive them to practice, etc. That's a different story. Best of luck! [/quote]
