[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You have a nanny and au pair?  Do you spend any time with your child?[/quote]

OP here - I work from home and had a newborn so the au pair (and now nanny) helped only with the siblings. There was overlap with her and the nanny so that it would be a smooth transition for everyone especially the kids. The nanny was part time during the overlap and took over full time when AP left. I don't actually spend any time without my children, although that'd be a nice change!

But, more to the point, you really shouldn't be participating in a group discussion if you can't contribute productively without needlessly projecting your own biases and fears onto other people in the conversation.[/quote]

Actually you spend a lot of time without your kids and that is a lot of child care.  You sound very critical for someone paying for so much help.  You should have increased the Au Pairs salary given you were probably paying the nanny much more for the same job.[/quote]

There's a huge difference between what an AP does and what a halfway decent nanny does.[/quote]

No, there isn't.[/quote]
