[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course I want and expect the childcare.  For me, I also want them to like our family, enjoy their year and think of the experience as an exchange.

You should read your posts from the perspective of a parent to one of these girls - would you want your daughter to spend a year with a HM who has so much hostility bottled that appears directed at this newly arrived AP?

Its not whether you offer $20 or $200, its about the attitude of wanting to make it work and make it a warm relationship vs. having the attitude of not paying a dime more than required (or at least making it sound like you feel that way in your posts).

Also, while I have paid extras when I think it makes sense, I also use the full 45 hours and pay the exact stipend required.  I'm not rich -  I'm a working mom whose work-life balance relies on my AP, so I am looking to find low impact ways to make our relationship successful.

Lots of HFs already doing that in form of gifts card in welcome package. It is great if you do it but it also ok other HFs choose not to do it![/quote]
