[quote=Anonymous]Nope, this is normal. It's also normal to want a nanny. People have different feelings about their space at home and how easily they can fold another person into their home. I know people with au pairs and I LOVE their au pairs -- great women, great with the kids, seems like a terrific arrangement. NOT for me. I just really love our family dynamic with just DH and the kids and I and I don't want another person there, even a great and helpful person with a great personality who understood boundaries. I want it to be just us. For us, a nanny share hosted by another family or a small home daycare is perfect. Or a SAHP, which I actually did for a bit after our first was born because I was between jobs anyway. Anything that allows our home situation to be private while also allowing great care for the kids. I get the appeal of a nanny, it just isn't for me.[/quote]
