Daycare conundrum

I've been getting a belated case of working mom guilt. I admit it, I used to call Saturday the new Monday.

Olivia started daycare very early -- she was 3 months old when I went back to work full time. We found her a facility that we were pretty happy with, she was the baby girl and got a lot of attention and love from the caregivers.

Now that Olivia is entering the developmental phase, I wonder if we should be trying to find a situation where she gets more one on one interaction and playtime. Googling 'Nanny vs daycare,' I found this article.

It raises some interesting points, with a nanny you are making a commitment to another person. It's kind of like dating, except that it's not very easy to break up. And you can't spend years looking for Nanny Right. Nannies who are energetic, engaged with the kids, and committed to helping the child develop emotionally and socially are few and far between, as evidenced by the new trend of nanny poaching.

I think the best thing I could do is find a way to work a shorter day. Or to try to find someone to take care of Olivia for a few hours after work.
