ALL of your AP’s are doing some kind of side hustle while they are here. $200+ (for the families like us who pay a bit more re: stipend) does not go “far enough” when you take in to account inflation, the increase in travel costs, etc.
As someone said above, let them be.
I give extra here and there and give travel bonus to help but I do not allow side jobs. I sacrifice my privacy living with someone for a reason. She needs to exclusively work for me for my convenience. Don't need potential dramas on the side.

We looked the other way if our AP took a few Friday night babysitting gigs, or was a dog-walker a few times. I would not look the other way if they had a regular gig.

Wow. Turn them in and have the deported.
And if you know who the other family is make sure you make it WELL known to their neighbors, friends, and employers that they hired an illegal nanny.

They are present, yes. You can either commit to being the visa police full-time or choose to ignore it.

That's different. The HF shouldn't have to work their schedule around the AP who wants to make money on the side, nor should they have to have their vehicle and gas used for another family.

Yes, they are there. Either make it your full time job to be the visa police or look the other way.
