Full-time Nanny with SAHP - Why?
| Tue, 02-10-2004 - 6:41pm |
Something I've often wondered about, but never had the opportunity to ask. Why do SAHM or SAHD need a full time nanny, especially when they aren't working from home. I can easily see the need if the SAHP is a WAHP, but what is the logic for a full time nanny otherwise?
Any comments?

I guess your confused, who said anything about a teachers job was providing childcare as if your implying day care
Please ask a teacher, I think they'll tell you that that is most certainly not their intent. They didn't go to college, get certified and get a masters so they could provide free childcare for you.
A 3 hour a day, 3 day a week, 9 month a yeat nursery school isn't providing childcare, at least in any significant amounts.
Now you have college paid for, you can go out and find a 40 hour a week volunteer position!
But both types of 'program' are in the same facility. . .so are you saying that the facility has a split personality?
That 1/2 of the facility is a child care center and the other half a preschool (with 2, 3, or 5 day options and running 9 am- 1 pm, though children can be dropped off at 7:30 am). . .despite the fact that they utilize the same curriculum philosophy. . .
That makes NO sense. . .unless you're willing to agree that preschool is just a fancy name for part-time child care.
I don't consider the two the same & neither does the preschool teachers I've talked with in the real world.
Pardon a question from a newbie. I usually lurk daily to read only but felt the need to ask a question this morning.
