[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our last au pair overdosed our kids with chocolate melatonin (in a childproof container)...of course it was an accident. She thought it was just candy in a childproof container...it went even more downhill from there. If I don't spell out the expectations and leave nothing to chance, I'm going to get the minimum. I would take a morning off or schedule the au pair for a family meeting ASAP if this were me (the me now who has learned her lesson about letting things slide).[/quote] There’s a reason we keep medicine in a specific location. If you label the cabinet with the word medicine and appropriate hazard pictures, never put candy or other food in there, you’re less likely to have problems with miscommunication. However, PP is absolutely right that you have to think through every single possible miscommunication, and come up with ways to make sure that the AP will understand.[/quote]
