[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love the program because of flexibility and cultural exchange but as an experienced host mom who also has a 5 mo baby and kindergartener, I do NOT and would NEVER make an AP the primary caregiver for the baby. Caring for a baby is too grueling, and the schedule you propose too hard. Unless you start work at noon or something. [/quote] Can I ask why you would never make the AuPair responsible for the baby? This would be her primary responsibility. She would be other both children approx 1 hour per before I get home from work. From all of the Community Counselors I have consulted with they just recommend getting an older AuPair with one on one infant experience. [/quote] NP, get a mature AP and you will be fine. My Brazillian AP has a lot of AP friends taking care of infants and they love it, most extend. They love taking care of sweet little baby who don't talk back! Start looking early and get the one who are 22+ and have a lot of experience with baby. Good luck![/quote]
