"it is a Household position"

Rather than refering to the children themselves, 'børne folk' probably refers to the people who took care of the children.

This is an older form of Norwegian.

This could possibly be a misspelling for 'børneflok', 'a group of children'.
Peer comment(s):

neutral Per Bergvall : Unless it's at the beginning of a sentence, the capital D suggests Deres means Your (numerous children).
