[quote=Anonymous]I’m a SAHM and if we could afford it and had a bigger house, I would totally have a nanny at least part time. I don’t see it as much different from how wealthy people use money to make life easier in other ways - house cleaners, personal chefs or buying prepared meals, gardeners etc. Pre-Covid, I had a sitter one morning a week. I would work at our pre-school coop, or run errands and go to doctors appointments. It’s hard to find a reliable sitter who can come only occasionally when needed, it was much easier to get someone every week. The friend i know with 2 kids and a full time nanny has one child with special needs who had a lot of therapies and appointments that she couldn’t bring the younger child to. She doesn’t really need someone all day every day, but it was much easier to have someone full time and then she could schedule things whenever and not have to worry about changing the sitter’s day if she needed a last minute appointment or whatever.
