[quote=Anonymous]It would not be odd. I arrange my work schedule so that I am home after school for my 4 year old. We go to playgrounds and she plays with the other kids, sometimes with me as well. It's not weird that most/many of the other kids are with nannies. If anything, I kind of like it when it's just nannies and me because then if the kids play together, the nannies can talk shop, and I can relax a bit and I don't feel pressure to make small talk with other parents, since I spend all day talking at work and it's nice to take a break. But seriously, this seems like a great set up. Gives DH a chance for one on one time with the kids, saves some money, etc. I have found that after school is a really great time to really learn what is going on with my kid -- she is often quite talkative about stuff that went on at school and this tends to be a time that she likes to have more serious talks and confide in me. I think you should do it.[/quote]
