[quote=Anonymous]YMMV but nanny share has not worked for us. I think it's hard to make it work with another family and it's a lot of investment for it to fail. Our first share try, the other family's older kids were constantly bringing home illnesses from preschool, and they had a big extended family who were coming and going from the house spreading colds all winter long. Our second share, the mom was sending the nanny and kids on farflung "enrichment experiences" every day (like DC museums, Natl Zoo, and we live in the burbs, and the kids are under 2) and not notifying ahead of time. When we asked her to limit these activities/distances she fired us from the share. So... it's not always easy with shares. [/quote]
