[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I agreed with you, above poster, when I had one child. Now that I have 4, none of them school-aged yet, no one of them is getting that kind of obsessive, one-on-one attention anymore, and it's just fine. They have so much fun together that it more than makes up for the fact that my two-year-old takes a later nap than she would have had she been an only. Plenty of kids nap at daycare, btw.[/quote]

If your nanny isn't capable of handling four small children and teaching them, perhaps a different nanny would be a better solution.  It's quite possible for all four children to be ready to read and capable of understanding adding and subtracting on one hand by the start of preschool, the nanny just has to be experienced with lots of young children.  And frankly, if she can't establish a routine and stick to it, that's an issue.  I worked 24/7 with 7 children, homeschooling all of them, it's possible, it just takes experience multi-tasking and a willingness to change something when it stops working.[/quote]
