[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Which is better? We were planning to get a nanny for our baby when he’s six to seven months old, but we’ve had a few people tell us that they thought daycare was the better choice due to not having to be someone’s boss, more oversight of care, and more socialization. I was hesitant to put such a young baby into daycare, but the point about oversight gives me pause. [b]We’re looking to hire a professional nanny (i.e., someone who has a degree in early childhood education and sees this as a career)[/b] so we were hoping to avoid the horror stories about nannies who are distracted on their phones all day, but you can never really know. Any experiences/thoughts about which is better? Have you ever started with one and switched? Cost is not relevant to our decision. [/quote]

This is the best option. It comes down to you-get-what-you-pay-for. I've honestly never heard anyone say anything but praise for their professional, educated nannies. I've heard pretty scary stuff about daycare and rando third worlder nannies. Go with your instincts and dont listen to jealous haters who cant afford a good nanny.[b] This is one area of life where it's better to be elitist than a cheapskate[/b].[/quote]

And apparently a racist too![/quote]
