[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is why au pairs are so popular. $ vs $$$ [/quote] Or nanny shares. We have three kids and I very purposefully spaced my new baby - our third - out by four years so that both of the older two would be in school full time by the time he needed childcare so we could just do one nanny share. As an alternative, we were contemplating an au pair if for some reason we ended up needing more help with the other two. Then this pandemic happened and schools are distant and au pairs are canceled by Trump’s EO. So our hand was forced for a nanny, which for three kids is going to cost a small fortune and much more than the numbers listed in this chain. Luckily we have the savings to make it work for this temporary situation, but it’s a shame we need to go there. But like pp, the career hit would be devastating if either of us took a year off....[/quote]
