[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We went from nanny to daycare. I completely understand the problem you are facing. But as pp noted, nannies will also need days off, won’t want to come in if your child is truly sick, and call out last minute. Au pairs are going to be your most dependable bet in terms of showing up every day, since they literally live with you, are young and typically healthy, and have no familial obligations of their own here in the states. They are also likely going to cost way less than a nanny. But, that’s only an option if you have the space and want to open your home - it’s very much imposing. [/quote] Au pairs are younger and less experienced than nannies though, amd you may have to parent a young adult or teen[/quote]
