[quote=Anonymous]We are moving to Shepherd Park this spring and are trying to figure out the best childcare arrangement.  We have a 19 month old son and are expecting another baby in August.  The toddler has been in a nanny share since the start and is a very social, active little kid.  Our current nanny is willing to work in our new neighborhood, but I am worried there aren't enough activities in the immediate neighborhood to keep our toddler occupied.  Our nanny does not drive. We think he would enjoy/benefit from daycare, but we also love the convenience of a nanny especially with another baby on the way.

I would appreciate people's thoughts on nanny vs. daycare in the Shepherd Park and surrounding neighborhoods.  Are there enough activities within walking distance and enough of a "nanny community" to occupy the toddler and the nanny?  We are moving up from the Adams Morgan area where there has been a lot for the kiddos to do.  Should we consider daycare instead, and if so, could you recommend any centers for both a toddler and/or an infant?  Lastly, does anyone know of any part-time daycare/schools for toddlers in the area the nanny could take him to?

Thanks so much![/quote]
