[quote=Anonymous]Because it is MUCH better than daycare. The daycares in our area were all dimly lit and frankly depressing to me. I did not want my infant in that setting. A nanny share is a 1:2 ratio, babies get to be outside in the fresh air, then in a calm home setting, and you can hire a professional rather than a minimum wage worker. If the nanny care is in your house or close by, it’s also a huge time saver. I didn’t have any issues coordinating with the nanny family. I am generally very laid back. When the other moms had small issues with the nanny (like arriving late) I let them handle it. It’s not hard to agree on the basics of paying and supervising a nanny. I guess if you have some really idiosyncratic standards it would be more complicated. [/quote]
