[quote=Anonymous]I did nanny as I felt it was important for the kids to have a natural following of when they wanted to eat, when they wanted to nap etc rather than a schedule at a preschool. My children's nap times evolved over time so for instance my son at age 2 started to take a nap later and later in the day, and it eventually petered off. It would have been harder to let this natural progression happen in a daycare. I also liked that it meant they had more one on one attention from a single caregiver whose only focus was my children. I liked the convenience of them already being home when I got in. I travel for my job, so the nanny has worked out very well for us in that regard as well. She allows us a great deal of flexibility, and I have someone who knows my children day in and day out super well. They view her as a member of the family and have a real bond with her. Overall, I think if it is in your budget, you will find a nanny to be worth it. If it is not in your budget, then there are many fine and loving day cares out there too.[/quote]
