[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I got that if you can not afford the extra expense(s) then it’s time to look into other childcare options.[/quote]

Especially if "[h]aving an au pair is about double the cost of a nanny share and triple the cost of a daycare." The only logical option would then be to chose a nanny share or daycare over the AP (of course both options come with a lack of flexibility).[/quote]

DP, but yes, some you are super nasty and have all kinds of privilege to feel like you have any standing to opine what works for any family - and limited ideas of financial choices. With a nanny share at 45 hours per week, with paid holidays, and no flexibility, the au pair is still way more expensive at 40k, even if you are paying 13-15 hourly. [/quote]

You are throwing out words that don’t even pertain to the situation. I haven’t seen anyone being nasty except for you and the other poster claiming ppl are nasty. The only privilege is again by you who thinks they are entitled to childcare. Sometimes the truth hurts. If you are complaining about the cost of an AP, them wanting to see a pic of your house and room, judging them for wanting perks, etc then the simple logic is that the program isn’t for you. This isn’t being nasty, it’s the truth. If you feel the AP program is way more expensive than a nanny, then that’s something you should’ve looked into. Nannies can offer flexibility FYI. [/quote]

DP - I think the nasties have outed themselves as bitter nannies.

Yikes. [/quote]

Why would a nanny be bitter bc you chose to get an AP and then complained about the cost?

That doesn’t make sense.

Yikes. [/quote]
