Il lavoro dell’Au pair
In the morning, Monday to Friday, we get up between 6-7, and go to work in the city. The kids have to go to kindergarden/school at 7.30-8.00. In the afternoon the boys can walk home on their own around 15.30-16.00. The youngest girl needs to be picked up from kindergarden at 15.30. We have dinner around 17.00 and then the children have football/tennis or other activities 2-3 days a week, where we accompany them most times. We get home from work approximately at 17.00, but some days later, and then the au pair needs to watch the kids at home.
