[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have struggled with this issue every year, and while I understand the Au pair's interest in babysitting at market rate, there is always lingering resentment on both sides. Our Au pairs have been paid $20 an hour for babysitting, and they come back exhausted but giddy with excitement of a cushy but illegal gig. They are not considering who is paying for their room and board, plus the car and gas they used to drive to their babysitting job; if anything, there is less appreciation for the Au pair program and for you as the host family.
