[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As others have said, having your child care arrangement dependent on someone flying down every other week is not a good idea. Why doesn't your mom just come up for a month (or two) so your baby can have consistent home care while she's little and then start the nanny arrangement a month or two later. Your mom gets her baby time, and you save some money too. (That's what I did.)[/quote] +1 This makes sense.[/quote] My MIL spent 5w here with my first after I started back to work. I think she feels much closer to DD because of it. It wasn't always easy for me, but in the end it was worthwhile all around, I think. She still talks fondly of that time. Also, she was able to overlap a couple days with the nanny we did hire, and it gave me peace of mind that grandma also approved of the nanny in action.[/quote]
