[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up with a nanny. DH grew up with a nanny. To us, daycare is for people who can't afford a nanny. Hiring a nanny was a no-brainer for us. [/quote] Would love your perspective on growing up with a nanny. Did you wish you could spend more time with your parents? [/quote] Not really. I had more fun with my nanny than with my mother. She clearly didn't like me, and only wanted to like, trot me out to show me off to her friends. I was happy with my nannies. When I insisted I was too old for nannies so my mother stopped hiring them, THEN I wanted more attention from my mother. She went on a ton of vacations. I felt like I spent a fine amount of time with my father until my parents got divorced and he moved away. My husband had a nanny too, but his parents were very hands on, and the nanny was just more an extra set of hands within the family. So he'd go somewhere with his mom AND nanny. [/quote]
