[quote=Anonymous]I did this when my daughter was younger. It was fantastic with one family. They wanted another child around for their toddler son, because he had some social issues. They were 5 months, 1.5 yrs (mine), and 2.5 years old when I started. They’re 18, 19 & 20 now, and are all very close. They’re closer to one another than they are to their own cousins. I worked for that family for 3 or 4 years, and we still see them regularly.

I tried it with another family, and it didn’t work out. After about 2 weeks, we decided that I needed to find childcare or another job. Since they still wanted to pay the same low rate if mine wasn’t there, I found another job. I hired a nanny for part time when my child started kindergarten. She managed the half days, and school pick ups when I was working.

If a nanny has experience, 2 two years olds is really not that difficult. In a family of 3, there are generally two toddlers, or toddlers and an infant. Having done this job for so many years, I didn’t find it difficult. YMMV. [/quote]
