[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, but make sure you really want day care, a nanny share is about the same and has many benefits over daycare. [/quote] Opinions vary. I really preferred a daycare center.[/quote] +1 There are advantages to a nanny share IF you find a good set up and nothing changes. But the advantage of daycare is that once you are in, you are not reliant on another family or an individual nanny for childcare. But many nanny shares don’t last or the families don’t mesh or the nanny gets a better gig or has another reason to leave. Also, when comparing costs pay attention to added costs to a share, like needing to pay for equipment, food, the nanny’s vacation leave, classes your child may attend, etc. At a daycare center the costs will be transparent and up front (and if they aren’t, run). That kind of predictability can be really, really helpful. But yes, OP, you should get on waitlists now. You will have good options in TP/SS.[/quote]
