[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is so much hate on here , if someone is upset just don’t reply !
I agree with other moms who posted on here . IF you can find a good nanny it is awesome . The convenience of no pick up and drop off and they can teach your kid a lot . But yes the good ones are expensive and it can take time and trials to find a good one .

I had my older daughter in a “fancy” daycare / school setting and I liked it way better . No nanny drama , no responsibility . They were catered warm meals and learned a lot . [/quote]

OP here.  Yea, these responses are reinforcing my decision to find a daycare.  To me a good nanny is willing to be deferential to my preferences, not the other way around.  That’s not to say I’d want to micromanage (which is why I prefer a full service daycare) but it’s much harder to find a good nanny.  I’ll keep interviewing at the $35 rate but at that point my standards are extremely high.  Our favorite babysitter is heading to a top 10 law school - she’s been miles ahead of any professional caretaker I’ve met despite way less experience. We’ve found her a joy to have in our home as well, so unfortunately I think we just mesh better with people who wouldn’t want to nanny long-term.[/quote]
