[quote=Anonymous]OP, I was faced with the same choice when I had mine. I wound up quitting my job because I knew I would be able to pick up freelance work, and I just hired part time care to cover my work when I had projects. It was much more affordable than daycare/nanny would have been and it enabled me to spend a lot more time with my baby, which I really wanted. I have not regretted it. A deciding factor for me was that the two daycares that we had spots at, I didn’t like. If we’d found a daycare I felt good about, we probably would have sucked it up financially for that first year just to keep two FT salaries. But when I thought about leaving my baby at either of those places, just to go to a job where my entire take home would go to the daycare, it made me feel sick. Trust your gut.[/quote]
