Unfortunately the day has come that I have had to go back to work. This means Markus must go to daycare :cry: Between my and DH's schedules though, he only has to go 3 days a week.
We found a daycare to put him into right now, but I am not completely satisfied with it. I go in on my lunch hour to nurse, and everytime I am there at least one (if not more) of the children is crying. I know that the ladies don't mean to just leave them crying, but there are only two of them, and there are more children then they have arms and laps.
I'd love to find someone who can come to my home, more of a nanny, but I'm concerened about how to go about finding something like that, and the cost. My best friend got lucky and found someone willing to watch her toddler and school-aged son for $220/week, and she's available any hours she needs, and comes to her home. The care provider is a lady that worked at a day care she started with, and quit the day care when they made this arrangement.
Does anyone have any experience with services like SitterCity or Babysitters.com? Any other hints or suggestions you might be able to provide?
Thanks so much!
