[quote=Anonymous]Mom of 4 here — first three did various kinds of hard-to-get-into daycares and the fourth had a nanny. No question that nanny is better for my life as somebody who works at home. She helps with chores and can pitch in if an older sibling is home for some reason. I think daycare is way more fun for the kids after eight months or so. They don’t need “interaction” with an adult every second and they love watching and eventually interacting with the other kids. It’s more stimulating than almost any nanny, especially if you are realistic about how a nanny — or any caregiver myself included — is with a phone as soon as she isn’t watched. Daycare workers chat with each other and aren’t on their phones. There are back ups if somebody quits or gets sick. There are better toys and other supplies. But those days are done for me due to other life logistics.[/quote]
