How To Keep Your Child Safe While They're With A Nanny Or Au Pair

How can I keep my child safe while he's with a nanny or au pair?

The way that you keep them safe is by making sure, as best you can, that you don't put them in contact with an au pair or a nanny that would cause them any safety issues. The next thing you can do, depending on the age of your children, is to make sure that they can always reach you. If they've got a problem, and it's not being resolved by the nanny, then make sure they can find you - on the telephone. Often check in, call your home, or put your child on the phone (obviously if they are of a speaking age), and see how they are doing. Do it as often as you possibly can to really know that this particular au pair or nanny is providing a safe environment.
