[quote=Anonymous]We do near work, but I think the pros and cons are a wash, honestly. Pros: We can get to baby sooner in an emergency or when he's sick; he's in care for fewer hours (though I agree with PPs that I hate that he spends an hour a day commuting---but it does mean five hours a week less that we pay for care, and it means we can reliably pick him up on time, which would not be the case at the other end of the commute); if you forget milk or things like that, you can get it there. Cons: Have to commute when you're sick (not a huge issue for us since DH and I work close to each other and far from home, but an issue to consider if that's not the case); baby stuck in the car if you aren't transit-accessible; have to schlep everything with you. We plan to go with a preschool close to home since then it will be a fixed cost anyway and our son will be older. So I guess we can compare then and see...[/quote]
