[quote=Anonymous]Our almost-6 month old is not adjusting well to daycare and may be terminated in a week or two. She doesn't nap well in the crib (is used to napping in a swing or being held) and likes to be held a lot when she's awake too. (Yes, I guess we screwed up, we didn't realize how hard this would make the adjustment.) We can swing the cost of a nanny for a few months but can't afford it long-term without doing a share. Is that a crazy idea? Will it be hard to find a great nanny who'd be willing to start with one family and add a second in a few months? (Alternatively, how much attention is reasonable to expect if we do a nanny share from the start? We would be totally happy with the nanny working to get her napping in the crib, playing more independently, etc as quickly as possible, but she wouldn't be that way from the start, and we wouldn't want the arrangement to fall apart because she's difficult.)
