Choosing an Au Pair
Many parents do not know the difference between a nanny and an au pair. So how to choose which may be right for your family?
An au pair is usually a young person without any previous child care experince beyond possibly caring for siblings or babysitting. They live in, assist in minding the children, and are generally in that particular country to gain cultural experience. Think of an au pair as an exchange student of sorts that you pay and give room and board to in exchange for light housework, and occasional babysitting.
Choosing a Nanny
Many parents do not know the difference between a nanny and an au pair. So how to choose which may be right for your family?
A nanny, can live in or live out, and is an experienced child care professional. They may have begun as au pairs, and received further experience in the child care field, or they may be formally trained. They generally do not do housework, except for cleaning up from the child care activities, and their main purpose is just that...they are dedicated to helping your child grow and develop on a one to one basis.
