[quote=Anonymous]As a mom of two who recently put her youngest in daycare temporarily (older one was mainly at PT preschool) while nanny was out sick (recovering from surgery) for 2 months, i would not recommend it.  He was sick about 10 days out of the 30 days he attended.  Thank goodness they offer back up care through my work.   DH or I would telework while the back up care was there.

Anyway,  we decided before we put our son in that we would cut back everything we could to get him to at least 2.5 years old with our nanny.   We had the option of keeping him in full time and enrolling our older daughter in the preschool program.  Currently we have a FT nanny and she attends PT preschool (which costs quite a bit when you add those two things together). Once he was in daycare we realized that our decision was the right one.  He absolutely hated it, and this is one of the top daycares in DC.  At home he's able to sleep in his own bed and get 3.5 hrs of nap time total.  At daycare he was only able to get about 1.5 hrs a day.  Others there barely napped.[/quote]
