[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are travelling for work, not your husband. So HE should be a father and take care of the children himself instead of throwing them to the Au Pair.[/quote] NP. PP, You are crazy, maybe you are the crazy nanny who posts here all the time? Anyway, OP is doing what she needs to do. My AP started like this: very reserved and always in her room, not having dinner with us (I actually posted about that here), 2.5 months later she is much much better (still barely having dinner with us, but I choose my battles). What helped: I talked to her a lot, told her what i expected from her, told her I expected a bit of conversation, told her we will help but she has to help us, had weekly meetings with here where I asked what I could do for her. The difference might be that my AP always said she was NOT homesick but was just adjusting...Good luck, time might help![/quote]
