My name is Cynthia Sahm, I am Cindy Y's host mom. My tip for any au pair or au pair family is to respect each other and always communicate, even if it is difficult or awkward. Then at least you can understand each other better, even if you disagree on certain things! Since our au pair takes care of the family, it is Importent to keep her looped in on all things family-related. She needs to feel respected and valued and this is the best way to do it.
