[quote=Anonymous]Lots of mothers don't work full time and have nannies. Lots of mothers don't work at all and have full time nannies. A nanny is not just an extra pair of hands and a nanny is not a substitute mother. Your nanny can teach your children things you may not know (a second language, music, new songs, etc.) and give greater attention to your kids (take two to the park while you are with one, give singular age appropriate lessons to one when you have two, etc.) I would not go with the housekeeper/nanny route if I were you - I would go with the teacher-type nanny instead. You have a prime opportunity and a window with your young children to teach them easily things that naturally will come harder when they are older. Another person to read to your children - and read more often than you can alone - cannot ever be bad. [/quote]
