[quote=Anonymous]Presumably you will be getting better care than with a babysitter. The SAHMs also take on more wear and tear on their homes/toys etc, and have to rearrange their lives to accommodate extra children as well. They lose many of the benefits of being a SAHM-taking kids to classes, going to the gym/store/friends house whenever they want, accommodating your child's nap schedule and making it work with their own child's, the list goes on. Logistically, its just as difficult as a share and most likely you will get some freebies; snacks for your kids, baking projects that you don't pay for, an ice cream or cookie when the kids are out, little things that most nannies would be given petty cash or reimbursed for get kind of lumped together when a mom is buying for her kid too.
