[quote=Anonymous]I have actually been a SAHM parent in this situation and it is really not fun and I would definitely have hired help if it had been an option at the time. So in that sense, I can totally see why someone would hire two nannies until at least the baby drops down to one nap. Being one person taking care of a baby and toddler sucked for me.

HOWEVER, I think a lot of the reasons I needed help are things that an experienced nanny would not have issues with. Like, I was breastfeeding, so that was hard to breastfeed a baby while taking care of a toddler - but a nanny is not breastfeeding. And I am just bad at putting down babies for naps, so I end up doing a lot of holding for naps, and I assume nannies can magically place all babies down in their cribs and they fall asleep for a nice long nap so they can spend time with the toddler.

So I guess if you are able to pay for two nannies, I feel like you probably have enough money to pay for one stellar nanny who is really good at handling a baby and a toddler at the same time.[/quote]
