[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So you pay $200 per month stipend plus $250 per month incidentals, plus gas and providing her with her own car, plus a cell phone, plus $2,000 in bonuses during the year, plus $8,000 agency fee and $500 toward classes plus housing and feeding your 18/19yo au pairs? And have done all this with every one of them? So it costs you about $35-40k plus living with what you refer to as a sloppy teenager a year for a 19 year old to watch your kids? A 19yo who you refer to as a girl that needs a ton of direction. That is absolutely nuts and totally dissimilar to anyone I know's experience with the au pair program - and I've been hosting for ten years. [/quote] Try your math again and get back to me. Cash out of pocket (minus the normal living expenses which I've always had with a live in nanny) is 25k. Hardly a hardship and still 10s of thousands less that a US citizen.[/quote]
