[quote=Anonymous]Even if nanny is cheaper for a particular year (two kids close in age, staying home), the opportunity/time costs of finding and training one should be taken into account. Also, most people want to send their kids to preschool by 3, and 4 at the latest, so that savings is only really one year. Then maybe you're used to it, but you're paying nanny plus preschool, and very quickly when you see how wonderful it is for the kids, two preschools or letting your nanny go. I see SO many posts in my moms group that the nanny was there one year and now the child is going to full time preschool/daycare in the fall. This is all just food for thought. Nanny can be a great gap-filler to get through that one tough year. But it doesn't strike me as a choice that should be made on what's the absolute cheapest, rather, where is the best value for the money for your particular family situation.[/quote]
