are 5 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, a huge

There is also a playroom and a basement. We
normally put old things in the basement. In
the past, we hosted an au pair to take care of
me and my brother, so the basement was
kind of her house. There was a small living
room, a bathroom, and a big bedroom. By the

WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

I’m Kim. I’m an au pair in America. I arrived here


4 months ago, and yesterday I had my first
scary moment. I take care of two toddlers who
are twins. Sometimes it’s a total nightmare.
Yesterday, Martin was in a bad mood and didn’t
want to interact with me or his brother Dan.
While I was feeding Martin and Dan, Martin
suddenly tried to get out of his high chair. He
fell on the floor and hit his head. He fainted
right away. I didn’t know what to do, so I called
911 and checked his breathing.
