[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You also need birth control![/quote] No, I don’t. We planned the first two, the last one was a surprise. [/quote] In that case, you need your heads examined [/quote] Why? Because I decided to have children? It’s mt body and I choose what to do with it. Our last baby was not planned and am “accident” but we’re making the best of it. I have an older brother who is 10 years older than me so I’m so glad my kids will be close in age. [/quote] Ignore the naysayer about the ages of the children. It's challenging now, but you will reap the benefits of your wonderful family in years to come! To respond to your initial question, no matter what you decide to do about preschool, get a nanny who has worked with multiples and pay as generously as you can. She'll still have 3 under 3 on some days. I think 7-4 is too long, more like daycare than preschool (frankly, both bring a lot of germs home to the younger siblings), and it sounds like the logistics might tricky for the nanny if it's [u]not[/u] an all day program. Have you managed to get the older two on the same nap schedule in the afternoons? Because an alternative to taking the oldest out of the house everyday might be a nanny's helper (high schooler) who could help out by coming by in the afternoons after nap to help by playing one on one with the older kids on alternate days or minding the baby for an hour or so to allow the nanny to go to the park with the older kids after nap time. [/quote] Hi, the two younger are not on the same schedule. 11 month old is sleep trained and one of his naps matches up with oldests nap. We will sleep train youngest at 4 months. I think we might start off with half days 2x per week. I have advertised for nannies whobhve experience with multiples and more than two kids. [/quote]
