[quote=Anonymous]we were very fortunate with daycares -- with both children starting at 4-5 mos. The caregivers were not only warm and constantly cooing and cuddling the babies, they were singing, playing games with them, stimulating them with colorful toys and books and props, letting them explore, feel different sensations, taking them for walks in the fresh air and explaining things to them... I quickly realized that compared to these professional caregivers, I suck. i would not be doing as many stimulating things with my child. I'd be bored in 10 minutes. There is also great accountability in daycares when there are more than one caregiver assigned to a room. If you want to spy on your nanny, I hope you feel good about that. Relative morality and all. But honestly if I were a nanny watching a child all day, there's no way id be able to keep up the playful banter and fun all day long with no breaks ,tv or cell phone calls. [/quote]
