[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You want to fire the nanny for using her vacation time? You want to put your 2 y/o in full time school (daycare)? And she already struggles with separation (which is common at 2)? You say you want what is best for your child, and maybe that saved money can go to her college fund and be better for her down the road, but right now that best thing for her is to have activities to go to while having the comfort of her home, her caregiver that has always been with her, and her own bed to nap in. Ideally start your child in part time preschool at 3.5 years and gradually increase the days and then length of time per day... if you truly want what is best for her now. But, if you can’t afford to keep your nanny, then you should wait and try to transition her into her new daycare over the course of a month, not just throwing her in 5 long days per week from the start. You can use an agency for backup care; providing vacation time is part of being an employer. [/quote] I never said we want to fire the nanny for using her vacation time? Where did I say this? The reason why we'd like to send her to full-time daycare is because we are hoping that if we do this, she might adjust easier when she goes to preschool in August. But we don't know this, hence we are seeking advice.[/quote]
