[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do not get an au pair if you are accustomed to a professional, adult nanny. It is NOT the same thing. The au pair is going to need a lot of hand holding and alot of your involvement every step of the way. Remember, she likely has never stepped foot in this country. You will need to help her with many, many things. [/quote] I used to be an Aupair for two years, now a Nanny! I totally agree with the above! Plus an Aupair for 4 children is a lot and usually you don't get an Aupair that ever had nanny experience before. Sure, they tell you they are Kindergarten teachers in their home country and they are infant experienced but there is nothing compared to being an Aupair/nanny. If you really consider an Aupair, make sure she is over 25 to be mature enough to handle 4 kids, she has nanny (and i'm not talking about babysitting) experience.[/quote]
