[quote=Anonymous]Do not get an AP because you think it’s the cheaper option. You won’t know the true cost of the program until you add it up after she leaves. I probably spent a good $7k more than I had expected because I didn’t factor in things like, car accident (her fault), extra hotel rooms/food/tickets during our vacations, that she would eat A TON, both at home and when we got take out, throwing her a bday party, buying her gifts for Xmas and all other Xmas related stuff, wear and tear on my stuff at the house, etc etc. Nanny share is a much cleaner arrangement, though you are correct that it will give you less flexibility with schedules. Fwiw our AP grossly exaggerated her experience with kids. Like, she was “infant qualified” by the agency yet didn’t know how to feed a bottle / change a diaper. [/quote]
