You have children who behave so well with the babysitter that they go to bed on their own and don’t make a sound. And you have children like Caroline’s (37).

Caroline (37) is married and mother of the twins Hidde and Bram (8).

“As a twin mother, I now know a thing or two about the jokes that children can play when they look exactly the same. Even my parents sometimes struggle to tell our boys apart, so it’s no surprise that our nanny Gea (60) gets confused. Twice a week she babysits for us after school and Hidde and Bram have now made a sport out of it to make fun of her.
