[quote=Anonymous]Strong vote for a nanny share. We always assumed a nanny would be out of our reach economically and we'd use daycare. But a nanny share is an awesome alternative. Might be tough to find another family if it's not common in Chicago - but being in a nanny share is wonderful for our son. The nanny makes $24 on the books, so we each pay $12 an hour plus payroll taxes, insurance, etc. Total comes to about $2,500 a month. My son gets excellent care, personal attention, and (this was key for us) the opportunity to take good, long naps in a dark, quiet room with a sound machine, and can stay on the schedule we like for him. I know a lot of babies can adjust to daycare naps - my baby was not one of them, and I think baby sleep is so, so important. [/quote]
