[quote=Anonymous]If you work from home a lot then it is really nice to have the kids be somewhere else. Nanny shares are not regulated, daycares are. If the other family hosts, you are essentially using an unlicensed daycare. Having a nanny means child will have to transition to preschool/school later at some point. At 4 months, baby won't really have separation anxiety and will likely adjust quickly to daycare. We used a daycare with a preschool program from 5 months to 5 years old and felt the consistency really helped DC. It was a small daycare center. DC is now in kindergarten and had zero issues adjusting. But if you feel confident vetting and managing the nanny and the other family and you aren't concerned about kids being home while you work, give it a try. If you are the host family you avoid the daycare drop off and pick up hassle which can easily add 1-2 hours to your commute.[/quote]
