[quote=Anonymous]OP, you sound like a very nice and thoughtful parent. My advice to you is to begin visiting daycares and researching nannies. Take your son someplace for an hour every morning where nannies hang out (park, playground, library, book store story times, etc.). For daycares it's crucial that you spend 2-3 hours there to get a better feel for the level of care your children might receive. Observe not just play, but also feeding, diapering, outside time, nap time. Again, this is vital. You'll have to schedule something else for your son during these visits. You also want to collect accurate details pertaining to the daycare staff turnover rates. This is a major concern for most parents, as stable and consistant caregivers, are essential during the first years of your child's life. Lastly, how would your older son be transported to and from daycare if you have a nanny? She would need to flexibility to leave your residential property with the children during her ten hour days. Not being able to do so, would be unreasonable. Do you currently have any occasional sitters to help you? [/quote]
