[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look we live in DC (at least most looking at this board), not Nebraska. I don't see the need to offer extra up front, personally, which would make me even more resentful if things start off awry. On the one hand, it might attract higher expectations. On the other, I guess it is good that these young ladies argue for higher salaries? We start with $200/week, the normal allotted amount, and go up from there based on performance etc. We give them a very full Smarttrip card in the beginning, though now that I think of it, none of them (4 so far) have asked me to refill it. We have raised the salary to 250/week and higher for 2nd year, great performance, etc. Also have given $1,000 bonus at the end, for their travel month, and just as a way to help get on their feet for their next step. We are non-stop with food, buy everything they want. But they have all been extremely reasonable. [/quote] What country is your au pair from?[/quote]
