[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depends on the mother. Some non-mom caregivers are much better than the child's mother.[/quote] This. If you love being a mom and spending time with kids, researching development and enrichment, having a little one in your face all the time, etc. Then yes, your child will benefit. If you experience anxiety, burn out easily, crave adult time, yell, put kids on tablets to get them off your back - from 0 to 3 your child would benefit from a well qualified nanny. Some of child care is a bit of drudgery. Depending on your personality and attitude, it may make you unhappy... I think ideally everyone should have an option of extended maternity/paternity leave, and decide what's best for them. [/quote]
