Governesses, babysitters, housekeepers – those who wish to work with French families can find a job through agencies specializing in recruitment.
And the last thing. Somebody of sociologists said: ‘Having got rid of a necessity to participate in competition for a woman, a Russian man degraded and turned into a poor civilization misfit. On the other hand, taking part in the cruelest concurrence for a man, a Russian woman turned into something completely enchanting.’
