[quote=Anonymous]Single mother/professional- I use every AP hour possible and have a regular babysitter on standby for baby for overflow hours. When I looked at multiple AP programs, I asked multiple people within these programs about whether or not ours would be an attractive situation and was told yes, but to screen heavily for people with experience with babies who want to be with babies all day. I allow the AP to take the baby to museums, movies, malls, lunch dates with friends, the DMV, wherever, just as I would do if I were able to stay home with him. That's pretty much the best that I can do at this point. I thought having an au pair would be about the same cost as a nanny share, but it's a lot more. Still, on balance, I think it's a bit cheaper than a full-time nanny, and more flexible because I don't get federal holidays off. I don't think we should have to feel guilty for maximizing AP hours.
