Not necessarily. We certainly won’t replace our au pair with a nanny. We have an au pair at the point for convenience (school age kids) and for the CULTURAL EXCHANGE (great for our kids to learn about au pair’s country and culture). We won’t hire a nanny if we end up no longer hosting an au pair. [/quote]

I will find an afternoon sitter/driver. No need for a nanny.[/quote]

Exactly and those nannies cost $20+ per hour. Great news for part time nannies. Do you not get it? [/quote]

I wouldn’t call a college student that drives my kid home and watches them for 2 hours a day a nanny. If you really think they qualify as “nannies”, no wonder au pairs are comparable to some “nannies”[/quote]

LOL, good luck. I left the AP program 2 years ago. Even college kids are charging $20/hr for PT babysitting. A minimum wage job around here is already at $15. Not a chance there are bargains out there.

I pay our sitter $21/hr for 3 hrs a day, so $315 a week. Doesnt include any weekend/extra work.

Oh and BTW, finding someone reliable is hard. That why you need to pay good money.
