[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And the question I come back to is why is there a premium market for au pairs? I had an okay, not terrible experience. But the childcare was average, keeping the kids alive, but not actively engaging them and it was a lot of work for me to host a young person in my home and try to provide a cultural exchange for her. Why provide a car, high stipend, vacations up front before you even know if this person is going to do a stellar job of caring for your children? [/quote] Because you’re getting cheap childcare and possibly a split shift nobody else wants.[/quote] It’s definitely not cheap childcare, but yes to the flexible hours. [/quote] Compared to other in-home options? It’s cheap.[/quote]
