[quote=Anonymous]I'm a MB and we are not quite in the situation OP described, but are getting there. We have a PT nanny on weekday afternoons who sits 1-2 Saturday afternoons a month (for date night), but are planning to get full-time coverage (7-7) on weekdays and regular part-time help on Saturdays. I know some people would think it's excessive because I'm a SAHM and we have only one toddler child. But the fact is that I'm essentially a single mother as DH is a big law partner (not PP's employer, though!) and is on call 100% of the time. We have no family in the area. Getting full-time help isn't so I can spend minimal amounts of time with DC at my convenience, it's for backup when we need it, which hopefully will not be most of the time. I know there are plenty of SAHMs out there who don't have any help and I applaud them. But if we can afford an extra set of hands, why not? [/quote]
