[quote=Anonymous]OP, my parents watch my kids full time. When they started, DD was 2, mom worked FT and my dad was retired. DD started preschool at 2.5 and started going full time when I went back to work after DS was born. Overall it's worked out beautifully. Now, both mom and dad are retired. DD is in half-day kindergarten. One thing that is different is that it takes a bit more tip toeing to get around differences in opinion. Generally my parents are very deferential to my opinions. They occasionally grumble that 19 month DS is still rear facing, which a nanny wouldn't do, but they won't FF without my consent. They only feed him what I've given them the OK to feed him (he has food allergies). I think sometimes they are too lax with kindergarten DD, but I don't expect to get my way every time. DD was in excellent day care before this arrangement started. It's different now because my parents have a hand in raising her - it's not just child care.[/quote]
