[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We currently have a nanny but are thinking we'd like to do part-time daycare or pre-k in the next year or so in order to provide more socialization for my son. What do people typically do when they would still want part-time care from a nanny? Is this a common thing and the nanny is likely to be flexible or do you usually need to find someone new who wants part-time hours?

We couldn't afford to keep paying for 40-hours a week for the nanny and a PK program, which I know could be an issue. Our nanny doesn't drive (gets dropped off and picked up by a relative every day) so I'm also worried that I'd need to make time in my work day for pickup. I'm nervous to bring it up to our nanny because she tends to jump to conclusions or worst-case scenarios, so I was wondering if anyone else could share their experience.[/quote]

Families who keep the same nanny either turn the position isn't a household manager or housekeeper combo role, or they pay the same rate and outsource all admin tasks like sourcing birthday party gifts for child's friends, booking (or at least researching) summer camps, etc.[/quote]
