[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm interviewing now, and these girls Do. Not. Get. It. They're horrified at the suggestion that they can't take kids to the library, zoo, playground, wherever, while this virus is spreading. And none of them have given a thought to limiting their own social outings due to medical risk (not just for them, but for the family they live with). But, but-- that will ruin *my special superfun year* of partying in the USA! Me, me, ME!

They will start taking this seriously once an au pair or two dies from coronavirus, or if it takes root in their home countries. The agencies need to talk some sense into them, because it's a serious risk to match now. I wouldn't do it.[/quote]

Why would some random woman abroad come to the US for minimal pay and have to stay home during their free time when they could match with another young family with no immunocompromised people in the house? Maybe you’ll get lucky and some saint AP will match with you. Otherwise, you’ll need to choose a leftover who can’t match with other families or else provide perks that other HFS don’t.
