The job interview - Family A

Apparently, it will cost parents euro19-25/hour to hire babysitters from agencies
and euro 10-15/hour to hire on their own
no wonder, i was able to find so many families advertising on craiglist
Families were about to get tax refund if they declare the babysitter
which entails some admin stuff, contract etcs 
Since it will be good for me to pay taxes,
i decided that ill want to be declared and not working under the black market

The first family was staying 10mins walk from home (2 boys aged 7 and 9)
I was to meet the mother at their home
The interview was simpler than what i had at the agency
they did not give me situational questions related to emergencies etcs
just a brief talk about my background and why im here in France
then some discussion about my plans and upcoming schedule

Language was not a problem
as the mother and kids spoke with american accents
Apparently, they were staying in the US for a few years
The boys were cute and a little active 
(they were playing on iphone, only because it was the holidays)
but lesser than my nieces and nephew at home

Regarding homework,
I was supposed to help the boys as much as i can
which im not so confident..

I was a little surprised at the lack of french gesture
The mother did not shake my hand when i arrived
but the grandmother got up from her seat to shake my hand and greeted me
even when i left, there was no handshake
I don't know is it because of the lack of french gesture
or just some vibes i got from the mother
I did felt not so comfortable about working for the family
however, the mother requested for me to come again in a few days
to meet up with the father

When i arrived home (or in 2days),
I received an email from the mother with an offer of euro11/hour (gross)
Husband and i googled and felt that maybe i should asked for euro12/hour
since i mentioned to the mother that im looking at euro 10-12/hour
so i sent an email to the mother whether they can consider euro12/hour

A few days later, i returned to meet the father
The father seems to be friendlier than the mother
Asking the same questions about my background, reasons to be in france etc
but he has a concern that i do not know my class schedule yet
however, he did asked more about husband and singapore..
I wondered is it because the mother was not here,
the boys seems more active but just playing UNO 
I dont find them noisy, they were not shouting
but the father told them to lower their volume (Ah french parenting)
Mother arrived and told me that she will consider my request for euro12/hour 
and get back to me again

Same thing, no handshakes
I still did not get the excited positive vibes to work for them
added that it was working 20hours / week which can be tiring for me
they did offered euro12/hour in their next email
however, i rejected them because I was confirmed by family B!
