[quote=Anonymous]I've been pouring over the math for the last few months. Here's what I've come up with: Center full time for 2: $27k - 32k a year In-home for infant + preschool with before & aftercare for older kid + 1-2 summer programs: $30k Au pair ($18k in official costs, $24k if you include all extras) + part time preschool: $27-30k Live-in nanny + part-time preschool: at least $32k, assuming you can make due with 40 hrs/wk (add another $8.5k if you need 50 hrs/week) So we're leaning towards au pair or live-in nanny with part-time preschool. It's about the same as two in a center but we'd gain the convenience of not having to do all the pick ups and drop offs, making lunches, washing bottles, and the kids' laundry. That would definitely improve our quality of life and be worth having a "room mate" of sorts. [/quote]
