[quote=Anonymous]We have always had a live out nanny but are moving and need to find someone new, so I am debating whether we should be considering a live in instead. We do have the space (nice basement bedroom and bathroom) but I don’t know if I love the idea of having someone in our house and space 24/7. However, the few people I know who do have a live in absolutely love it.

Right now DH and I work from home full time, but our offices are reopening this summer and we will need to go in 3 days per week each. If there is a day we both have to commute we will need childcare from 7:30am to 6/6:30pm, but on days at least one of us works from home we would only need help from 9-5. So assuming we both commute on the same days one, or maybe two, days per week max does it make sense having a live in for those hours?

Can anyone who has a live in share pros and cons? Does your live in only help with child related duties, and if so what do they do in their off hours? Do they eat dinner with you or do their own thing? Open to any insights people can share![/quote]
