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 can't imagaine that any certified teacher would consider the foundation of a program embedded in its hours of operation and unrelated to the skills that she would use in a full-time as well as a part-time classroom. maybe the type of "teacher" who would work in the kennel-like example i've offered couldn't imagine how she could hold her own during a longer session than she does, but a trained educator wouldn't be so superficial.
the most important differences between programs have to do with how appropriate and interesting the environment and activities are, not with what hours children can attend, and in that regard there are some "preschools" that are more like some daycare centers than other "preschools," and vice versa. generally, though, it takes at least some full-time enrollment for a program to be affordable to parents and to afford to attract and keep appropriately trained staff.
They have enrollment periods and only so many can be accepted due to class sizes. If you get accepted the classes are designated times and if you work you must provide transportation and daycare for your child as of 11:30 dismissal time. All children must be potty trained. The teachers greet you at the car for arrival and dismissal at the appropriate times of *30 and 11:30. They do not provide transportation to your daycare, that is the parent's responsibility. There is no childcare on site, only the preschool open during their hours of operation.
Actually the concept was introduced earlier than that when people began talking about how 40 hour a week volunteering wasn't needed or wasn't beneficial to them.

It may not be the intent, but part of teaching is also caring for the child.
