[quote=Anonymous]I think a daycare with an 8 minute walk is also extremely convenient. My kids went to daycare starting at six months at a daycare center a few minutes walk from our house and it has been great. I work from home one day a week and was able to go and nurse instead of pump that day. And it’s never closed (in six years of daycare I think 2x there has been an emergency closure due to water in the neighborhood shutting down and one day with a/c breaking in summer). And I can drop off my kid as soon as it opens and then go for a run before work, if I need to.

My oldest kid did get sick her first year- lots of bugs going around- but it was overall very worth it to our family.

Finally, I have no personal experience with nannies but have friends who have- a good caregiver whether nanny or daycare is literally worth it’s weight in gold. You need to trust and rely on your child’s caregivers at every stage of their childhood, honestly, especially that young. It’s not black and white like- daycares are better or nannies are better.

Good luck OP.[/quote]
