[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about finding a 24 hour daycare? There are some good centers and in home daycares that provide care 24 hours a day. Yes your child won't be in their own bed but it will be your cheapest route. Most people willing to babysit won't be able to work overnights as they will be high school or college age[/quote] This is your answer, OP. Don't use friends and neighbors, because no one wants to be put in that position unless an emergency arises. Nannies are luxuries and it is out of your price range. No one is faulting you for not being able to afford one, but you are not being very realistic. Daycares are what most people use because they are more affordable, especially in home daycares. You will find some over night or 24 hour places that can accommodate your child. Check craigslist, a lot of daycare centers post there. That is where you will find your cheapest childcare options. It isn't ideal, but it is likely your best option. [/quote]
