[quote=Anonymous]We fully expected to do daycare for cost reasons. Two things changed our minds: 1) In downtown DC, an on the books, 40 hr. per week nanny share is the same cost as daycare. So the cost part disappeared. 2) While there are lots of babies who can sleep anywhere, or who can learn to sleep anywhere, my baby was NOT one of them. I am confident that daycare would have been a sleep disaster for him. He needs a pitch black room to take good naps. And the nanny share is great for that. We host, so he naps in his own room. It also means much more control over his schedule. Most daycares also move babies to one nap at 12 months. Well, most babies need two naps longer than that. [/quote]
