[quote=Anonymous]I've done both and as others have stated there are definitely pros and cons on both sides. The major con for nannying is the lack of adult interaction but if you join a play group esp one that has other nannys it's not too bad. Yes, the jobs don't always last more than 2 to 4 years but then nothing lasts forever and good pay makes up for it. And I like the lower number of children. You can still do lesson planning as a nanny. The lessons are just looser and tailored to the individual child. I used to run a little nanny play group and plan for them. Hmmm... apparently I lean towards being a nanny. But I would work in daycare if I needed too without too much complaint. Oh I just remembered the other nanny cons: no real "lunch break" or any other breaks and really long days. But still the pay and the freedom make up for both of those. Plus you build a real relationship, hopefully , with the family and the kids. [/quote]
