[quote=Anonymous]We have absolutely loved nanny sharing. I couldn't afford a nanny on my own, so to me this is a way for my DS to get more focused attention than he would have in daycare. We've done a nanny share since I went back to work when he was 6 months old (currently 16 months). The biggest pros: - more focused care than a daycare situation - less sickness than a daycare situation - still gets to interact with another child/learn to share - gets to nap in his own bed (share is hosted at our house) - eats what I want him to eat Challenges: - finding the right share family (we have similar parenting philosophies as our share family (no screen time, healthy eating, outdoors every day, etc.) so it works for us, I'd put quality time into finding the right family, not just a convenient family) - finding the right nanny - figuring out schedules/logistics that work for everyone Good luck!
