anxious over daycare.

We have a great daycare provider who really loves our daughter. She was the first person I told when we found out we were expecting. I wanted to let her know ahead of time and also see if she were able to take another baby.

She is losing a child to school and does have a opening but she told me she isn't sure she would take our baby because she isn't sure for how long she wants to watch children anymore. Her last baby is going to 4K and she thinks that maybe she would want to aid in the classroom now. She has 5 kids and this is her last.

I am so anxious there is limited daycare in our area and to find someone that will take a newborn and a 2 year old. UGH> I dreamt last night that I had to take my LO to a daycare and they lived on the river with no fence and had a ton of stairs in their house that LO climbed on all day. Crazy pregnancy dreams.

That stinks! We are in a similiar situation with a SAHM that kind of fell in to babysitting to help out my friend 5 years ago and now she watches a few different teachers' kids. She is phenomenal and my daughter adores her, but I know she won't be doing it forever. Her kids are both going to be in high school next year (freshman and junior) and she has talked about going back to school at some point.

I really hope your provider decides to continue or you find someone you love just as much. At least she is giving you time to consider your options, rather than a two week notice or something crazy like that. Good luck.

we use a daycare (I call it school) and LO LOVES it. She lights up every time we walk through the door and the teachers are great!

I had a nanny till LO was about 10 months old then we switched. I was so nervous but it's the best thing we could have done. She is such a social well adjusted baby.

Good luck!!!!
