[quote=Anonymous]I think the reason the math doesn’t work out for some families is the economy of scale. If you have a nanny or au pair, it doesn’t matter if you have 2,3, or 4 kids. They all share the same caregiver. If you use daycare, then you are paying more for each kid individually. For a family with 4 kids, travel sports and private music lessons for each kid are extremely expensive compared to that 1 nanny. For a daycare family of 2 kids who play rec sports, the elementary years are a bargain! [/quote]
