for parents..who have little kids?

Question

if you going to have an aupair to take care of your kids what do you expect from them.....?
what is the most important thing the aupair should have?

Answer 1

The patience of a saint. and a frim but not heavy hand with discipline, a good education, strong language skills (good diction), an apreciation of the balance between work and play. And most important my child should at the end of a day talk about him/her with reverence and a bit of awe but not fear.
Hope that helps, but remember your child is the best meter, paying attention to how they interact together is important.

Answer 2

You should probably check the references that they give you. It's very hard to trust kids with strangers and you need to really check that out.

The hidden camera idea is probably a good one. You hear too many abused kids that can't tell how they get bruised or hurt. That is one good investment.

But I would check the agency, if you go to one. There are day care centers for young kids. Check to see what's in the neighborhood or ask your neighbors if they know someone who would babysit.
