[quote=Anonymous]With one kid, which is our only comparison point, we spent almost $40k for an au pair last year. This is a lot more than daycare and also more than a typical nanny share. It is a lot less than a nanny, and the care is more flexible (although the only flexibility we needed was working federal holidays, because we do). We can afford $40k, but no, it's not cheap child care, and yes, the increase to our car insurance was over $1k. What some of the privileged (and nasty) on this forum are saying is that government workers, teachers, non-litigators, and small business owners are "not good enough" to host the au pairs that make them feel like to the manor borne with the requisite German governess.
