Choosing the Right Childcare Option

When we are going to leave our children in the care of someone else, especially when it is for the first time, the type of care arrangement we use is not one that we make with haste. We want what is best for our children, knowing that they are safe and being cared for in the appropriate manner. So whether you have decided to return to work, or are looking for extra childcare so that you can attend a course, or night school, you must look carefully at the options open, discuss them with your partner and family, and then conclude on what type of childcare arrangements suit you best.

If you are lucky enough to have a family member such as a grandparent willing to take on some hours of childcare then you should consider yourself blessed, as in today's society the majority of us have to look to outside options. Be it a day care center, day nanny or live in nanny who will attend to childcare duties, we must look closely at the options and decide which the right one for us is. A day care center is great if you only have one child, and there is one nearby, although when considering this option you must look carefully into the safety records of the center and check out that it is run properly and by trained professionals.

The second option open to us is to hire a day nanny. This is also a viable option if you work regular hours, and can give regular working hours to the nanny. This also retains your privacy as a family, as once the day is over, your nanny will go home, allowing you to enjoy your time alone with your children. Day care nannies are relatively expensive, and will cost a minimum of around 15$ per hour, so it is a good option if you have more than one child, as the nanny is paid per hour, not per child.

A diverse option to choose if you have an adequate sized house is alive in nanny. They are cheaper than their day care counterparts, charging around 8$ per hour worked plus food and lodgings. A live in nanny is a good option if you don't work regular hours, or want to enjoy the freedom of being able to dine out without booking a child minder, or purely for peace at mind, that if you get stuck in traffic on the way home then nanny will still be there as she lives at home.

If you want to find full day nanny for your home then there are few agencies in Canada where you can contact for finding a perfect childcare person their consultants will also take care of your needs and requirements and will suggest you best nanny for your home. They will also specify your needs to the caregiver as well so there will be clear communications between both the parties.
