[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd do what's easiest for your family, which is keeping the current nanny for DD2 and have her pick up DD6 as well. No preschool. We kept both our kids in their daycare until 5 and they went straight to K without preschool. They're doing well. [/quote] There’s a big difference between daycare (which is essentially like preschool at older ages and nanny in terms of socialization and learning to deal with a structured educational environment. Is an aupair an option? Cheaper than a full time nanny but able to do flex childcare. [/quote] My first thought was having an au pair, but given that OP lives in NYC, not sure they have the space for it. However, if they have a spare bedroom, they'll have no shortage of good au pairs who'd want to match with them. NYC is one of the most coveted locations for APs. [/quote]
