[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are all these families on here not getting nannies when from the parents' job descriptions they can clearly afford one? A nanny is the answer -- they provide childcare to the little one(s) and drive older kids to activities. I know many families that have kept a full-time nanny even once all their kids were in elementary, and they think it's basically the best money ever spent. [/quote] DP - because I never wanted an employee, which is what a nanny is. Our kids benefitted from attending their well-run daycare; we couldn’t have afforded a fantastic nanny *and* great preschool. I’m all for carpooling, but as the parent of a tween, driving them to activities is great connecting time. Parents who never or rarely drive their kids to activities are missing out.[/quote] Do you have three kids? That’s why people are carpooling - multiple kids needing to be in different places at the same time.[/quote]
