How young is too young?daycare?

If you have a career and you had a baby what age would you think is apropriate to send your child to daycare/dayhome after they were born?
I have a friend that is a dayhome provider, she has 10mnth old twins and she was provinding care for a 2yr old. Mom of the 2yr old just had a baby and she was back to work when baby was 4days old, in my friends care. It is only half days now, but she is soon going to be full time, the baby is almost 5wks. Thoughts?

This is what always strikes me about MSAH's and MWOH: they suck all the joy out of being parents by insisting that there is One True Way to raise a child and that they alone have found it. Lighten up. Your kid's jaw will develop just fine if you put breastmilk into a bottle and let your someone else touch the baby once in a while. It will be good for you and for your child.

Early childhood education is considered, by most, to cover the years from birth to age EIGHT (or roughly third grade).
In Kansas they are changing the teacher licensure to reflect this view.
