[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m nearing the end of my second pregnancy and can’t keep up physical or mentally most days with my toddler. We started our toddlers nanny while on maternity leave, and I’m planning on doing the same thing with my second. I’m also looking into hiring a night nurse. My co-worker made a very judgy comment about my plans to hire so much help. This isn’t the first time I’ve had judgement comments about this. Am I a bad parent if I prefer to hire childcare? [/quote] No, you aren't a bad parent or a good parent. You are just a parent trying to make it work. Some parents are more nurturing, others aren't. Some have resources to outsource it, others don't and some don't want to outsource it. I'm sure most childcare providers want to outsource their jobs but they can't and have to take care of random people's children. That's just life.[/quote]
