[quote=Anonymous]I thought about a nanny share when we were deciding as there were a shortage of daycare spots at the time. But a few friends I trust pointed out the downsides they dealt with (managing an employee on top of other mental load/ parenting issues, having someone in your personal space all the time, cost). On top of the benefits of daycare (being part of a community, interaction with other kids, having structure/ activities, being in an environment where the individual child’s needs and wants are not the center of attention, exposure to other adults/caregivers, stimulating environment outside of the home, etc) those concerns made me decide not to pursue it. I have friends with more demanding jobs (so can’t do a 6pm pickup) and other preferences who did a nanny share. It’s really about what works for you and your family, OP.[/quote]
