[quote=Anonymous]We're considering a nanny-share for our second baby, and curious to know what folks find to be the pros and cons of this set-up vs. daycare center or in-home daycare. We sent our older daughter to a daycare center starting at 19mos (I was home with her before that) and were very happy with how it worked out. We're considering a nanny-share hosted in our house because the logistics of two different drop-offs and pick-ups seem a little daunting. Some of our questions/concerns are: - is it stressful being someone's employer? - are costs split equally between host and non-host families? - how important is it to have similar parenting "philosophies" as the other family - what happens when one of the kids is sick? - where does the other baby sleep if you're hosting in your own home? - what happens when the host family goes on vacation? - does each family provide its own food/snacks? Any pros/cons you can share would be so helpful. Thanks![/quote]
