10 #aupairproblems

  1. When the kids are being loud on a Saturday or Sunday morning.
  2. When you cleaned the house during the day but the kids come back from school and this is the same mess as yesterday. 
  3. When the kids can't poo without putting it everywhere and you have to clean if you're going to the loo after them.
  4. Poundland, Primark and Whetherspoon become your favourite places because they fit your au pair salary.
  5. When you have to work during the weekend.
  6. When all the family put their dishes next to the dishwasher and not IN the dishwasher.
  7. You go to bed (sleeping or not) at the same time as the kids because you don't want to stay downstairs with the parents.
  8. Sometimes you buy the food you're guilty to ask your host family to buy for you.
  9. When "stop, "don't", "come on" and "hurry up" become your most used words. 
  10. You question yourself about your wish to have kids in the future or at least you know how you will bring them up.
