Stuck between a Nanny and a Day Care

We have been on the list for the day care here at work since I was 3 months pregnant. A few weeks ago we were told over the phone that it would likely be Summer or Fall of next year before we got in. So, we planned accordingly.


Last week, before we left for our R & R, we were offered a spot at the day care and had/have 5 days to make a decision. Day 5 is tomorrow.

We discussed with Amy because our thought was to continue with home care and get Miss C back on the list. This would likely have her getting back in to the day care next year. When discussing with Amy we found out she has been without insurance for a month. This threw another wrench in our plans as now she has to make a decision regarding her path based on this need for insurance.

It's all very stressful.

We like the day care and while it would be an adjustment for us to do it now, we would. We just weren't really expecting it to be so soon.

I'll let you know the outcome.

In other news I think Miss C is getting sick. She slept a lot yesterday and woke up quite distraught at about 4 AM and wasn't consolable. We gave her teething drops, motrin and took her out of sleep sack because she seemed hot. Nothing worked. I ended up holding her which at first didn't really work but finally I was able to calm her down. Needless to say, SP and I are exhausted.
