This stems from me looking at rental houses 24/7 lately, but question:
If you live in a multi-level house, is your bedroom on a different floor from your kids?
I can't help it, but it REALLY bothers me to think about being on a different floor than the kids. I'm not really high anxiety about anything but this. For instance I just looked at a tri-level home and the master is on the third floor and the other bedrooms are on the first.

So am I super weird? How does it/will it work for you?

DD is still in her crib at 2.5yo and is showing no signs of wanting to move out of the crib (she refuses to after an attempt that led to a scary fall). Whenever she is ready to switch, we have a light at the end of the hall that we can keep on overnight if she decides to get up, and we will baby gate the top of the stairs as well for additional safety.
We are hoping this house will end up being our forever home, so if that ends up being the case, it will be nice when we're older.
Our current house has the master on the first floor and my son is on the 2nd floor. Due to this he remained in our room until he turned 1. It took some getting used to but its fine now although its not my first choice. We are in the process of building a new house and all the bedrooms will be on the same level which I prefer so that I can get baby #2 in his room earlier.
Add me to the 2 year old still in a crib club. We may switch him to a bed when we move (he will be 2.5 ish) and just have one mega life change all at once with moving, new bed, and a new baby. I'll probably gate the upstairs at that point.

At their current ages I would be fine with being on a separate level from them if needed. They haven't had overnight troubles/nightmares in a long time, and when DS had these last year at age 5 he was absolutely competent enough to move around the house, even in the dark, if he had needed to (shortly after this time he woke up a few times in the middle of the night and went to the playroom downstairs to play! at like 3am!!)
When my older two were toddlers, we lived in a single-level apartment (DS) and a ranch (older DS and DD until she was almost 2 when we moved here.) That is really the best when you have an under-2-yr-old, and even a younger 2 yr old. Now everyone is fully competent with the stairs and DD was nearly there when we moved to this house, but MAN was it nice to basically have no stairs in our prior homes in the baby/toddler phase. I am really not looking forward to putting up gates in this home and worrying about whether the gate is sufficiently safe (or even closed--I could see an older kid operating it and forgetting to close it properly). I know that has nothing to do with the sleeping arrangement question, but I just wanted to point out that ranches and similar homes are great for daytime and nighttime when you have a baby or toddler.
