[quote=Anonymous]It can be incredibly stressful. When they are about 5 they start aging out of that issue a little bit, which is such a relief. We've had two absolutely incredible nannies and several other mediocre to nightmare ones. Even ~3-4 is easier, they start being able to do closer to a full day of preschool and peer relationships become more important. Until mine were ~1 I worked from home with a nanny to breastfeed. That had its own difficulties, but at least I was there to know if anything was really wrong. I do worry with babies and toddlers because it's very high burnout work. A baby was killed by a worker at the daycare near our preschool last year. [/quote]
