[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A nanny or home daycare are more likely to shirk sanitization rules than a center that is often under more scrutiny.

You have no clue what your nanny is doing on her off time or what a home daycare provider is doing. A center is being watched by a ton of parents and often is run by a corporation that doesn’t want an outbreak on their hands.[/quote]

This is illogical. You also have no clue what the other families in the daycare are doing in their time off, or what the teachers are doing in their time off. I don’t think there’s any genuine debate to be had that exposure to fewer people is less risk. We can debate whether daycare is an acceptable level of risk, but a nanny is clearly less.[/quote]

+1. The more people - the greater risk.  Our pediatrician advised us not to send out baby back to center daycare for this reason.  Sanitation means nothing when you have ten little kids and two adults plus parents dropping off in one room.  And if you have “no clue what your nanny is doing during her time off” you most certainly have no clue what daycare center teachers are doing on their time off!!

OP, a nanny share seems like your best bet in your situation.  [/quote]
