[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] What will you do when your little guy goes to daycare? You will be unable to monitor him in there. I hate to tell you this, but I am pretty sure your nanny took much better care of him and gave him more one-on-one attention then he will get in a daycare. In a daycare, he will get less attention since there will be multiple children to look after. Just understand this.[/quote] PP, you are probably right he will get less 1:1 attention at daycare, but you are absolutely wrong that the nanny "took much better care of him."[b] Trained daycare workers will ensure OP's son gets appropriate sleep as well as soothing for his reflux. He is absolutely better off at a daycare than with this incompetent "nanny."[/quote][/b] I have to say I totally disagree that in a home daycare the workers there can make sure an infant will get his appropriate sleep there. Most likely he will be sharing his sleeping space/crib/pack & play in a room w/another infant or child so his sleep time will not be all his own unless he will have his own room to sleep in. Also if both workers have their hands tied w/the other children, your son may have to wait his turn to get his "soothing" for his reflux. This is the reality of having a baby in a daycare. I am just stating facts here. The last sentence that this nanny was "incompetent" is very subjective. I can't agree or disagree because I wasn't there. From what I read in OP's post, I can only take away that her baby was not in any way neglected or abused and that he was not in harm's way at all. Lucky for him, he had someone w/him who could focus on him and his needs 100%. She didn't seem to have any distractions going on. She didn't even seem to be watching T.V. or spending too much time on her Smartphone, etc. She sounded like she was trying her best to focus all her attention on the baby and only the baby. That is something he won't get at daycare. [/quote]
