Our au pair starts tomorrow from France, Im soo excited cos i used to speak french to a pretty good standard so im looking forward to brushing up on it.
If it all goes well she will be staying for 1 year then we will probably get another french speaker..
What I want to know is...I would like James to benefit from having a french speaker in the house but wondered if he would pick stuff up being so young and also with her not being around ALL the time? If I get her to speak French to him is it just going to confuse the poor child?? If thats not a problem, whats the best / most effective way to work it so that he is getting used to both languages?
Thanks!
