[quote=Anonymous]I agree that this is not about the money but what is best for your family. I do agree that staying home will not solve the larger problem here, and could potentially make her reaction even stronger in the future, in fact. I do also understand that your concern is she not lose any weight, thus you may have preference for facing / resolving her separation anxiety in a year or so, when you hope she will have gained more weight.

A few ideas that I hope might be worth considering:

Could your partner do drop off? For whatever reasons this could be a good balance between the familiar and a less emotional drop off.

There's the separation from home (a strange environment, louder, etc.) and there's the separation from you. It's probably worth understanding if these things are different for your DD. Is she OK when a babysitter comes? If so, could you involve any family, particularly anyone your DD is comfortable with, to come and help you? Could you pursue having a college student babysit DD and use this as a solution over daycare?
