[quote=Anonymous]I think it's even enough that the devil is in the details. A loving, energetic nanny plus parents who enjoy their jobs and having that additional dimension to their lives, and who can arrive home excited to see their baby is going to be better for the child than a SAHP who feels drained by spending so many hours a day doing childcare and feels one dimensional and stifled. A SAHP who enjoys the rhythms of being home and gets a lot of fulfillment from it, and who has found a lifestyle that fits his or her strengths and weaknesses is going to be better for the child than a nanny who phones it in. Now, presumably you'll be doing the best you can to get a good nanny. So honestly, the biggest X factor is your personality. At the end of the day, a life that fits you better, when you have two good options like this, is going to be better for your baby. So even if your focus is on what's best for baby - it does come back to what's best for you. [/quote]
