Nannies in Maryland Verses Daycare in Maryland

HOME

Nanny: All nannies will arrive at your doorstep bright and early in the morning, coming directly to you! You have full control over the schedule you require, and they will readily adapt! This is a fantastic arrangement for parents, as the hours of operation are entirely determined based on your family's needs!

Daycare: Getting your young children ready for daycare can be quite the daunting task. Remembering all the essentials like diapers, bottles, medications, extra clothes, pacifiers, favorite blankie, bibs, and spoons can be overwhelming. Sometimes, it feels like you need to bring your entire house just to ensure you don't forget anything. Luckily, there's a solution - hiring a nanny!

ILLNESS

Nanny: While our primary desire is to provide comfort for our children during their times of illness, it can be challenging to be present at all times. Fortunately, nannies possess considerable expertise in attending to common ailments like runny noses and stomachaches. This allows parents to confidently carry on with their work commitments, knowing that the nanny will offer the essential care until everyone is back in good health.

Daycare: "Mrs. Jones, I regret to inform you that little Timmy appears to be unwell once again. Would you kindly make arrangements to collect him immediately? Daycares unfortunately lack adequate personnel to attend to children who are under the weather. This can pose a significant inconvenience for parents who need to drop everything and rush to the daycare to retrieve their little ones."

ACTIVITIES

Nanny: Are you aware of the specific activities you want your children engaged in throughout the day? Excellent! Share your aspirations and desired outcomes for your children's daily routine with your nanny, and she will prioritize them accordingly. Is your little one in need of assistance with letter recognition, writing their name, reading aloud, and potty training? You have the authority to outline the daily schedule you'd like to see incorporated into your child's day.

Daycare: It is important to note that at daycare, the daily activities are already pre-planned. Due to the large class sizes, it becomes difficult for them to cater to the individual needs of each child, as they often have classrooms with 25+ students. Consequently, it becomes quite challenging to specify the specific activities you would prefer for your child on a daily basis.

OUTSIDE ACTIVITIES

Nanny: Does your family have a beloved park nearby? Are there plenty of neighbors with children the same age as yours? Would you like your little ones to have the opportunity to organize play dates with other kids in your community? Fantastic! With the help of your nanny, all of this can be easily arranged! Many nannies in Maryland are connected with other nannies in the area, enabling them to organize play dates, trips to local parks, zoos, libraries, and museums � all the activities that will keep your little ones happy and engaged, while simultaneously learning and growing.

Daycare: While it is important to restrict outside playtime to the playground, it is crucial to consider the limited exposure to new activities that this may offer. Additionally, sending children out to the playground amidst a large group of young ones can pose potential dangers. The teacher to child ratios may not always be sufficient to ensure the protection of your little ones from common accidents such as bumps, bruises, and even biting.

SIBILING INTERACTION

Nanny: Having a nanny come to your home presents yet another incredible advantage - the opportunity for your children to spend the day together! This further enhances the deep bond and closeness shared among siblings.

Daycare: For very good reasons, daycares have a necessity to divide children based on age. This precaution ensures the safety and allows for efficient supervision when managing larger groups of children simultaneously. Nonetheless, it is indeed regrettable that your children spend the whole day in the same facility without the opportunity to interact with each other.

CALL YOUR CHILDREN

Nanny: Isn't it a lovely sight to gaze out the window and witness the gentle descent of snowflakes? Would you be interested in giving a ring to your little one and urging them to glance outside? How delightful! Your nanny will consistently be within reach throughout the day, ensuring uninterrupted access to your precious children. Did your child have an extraordinary occasion at the Gymboree? Why not reach out and inquire about its outcome! Kids adore it when Mommy and Daddy call and request to have a chat with them!

Daycare: When it comes to contacting your little ones at preschool, it's not feasible for you to make phone calls. Typically, preschool classrooms do not have personal telephones, and doing so would likely disrupt ongoing activities. Unfortunately, given the size of these classrooms, it becomes highly inconvenient for the Directors to accommodate parents who wish to communicate with their children throughout the day, even just to exchange greetings.

nannies Give One on One Attention

ONE ON ONE ATTENTION

Nanny: We will engage in various activities tailored to the specific needs of your family, such as playing blocks, coloring, baking a cake, reading a book, and singing together! Your nanny will provide individualized and focused attention to your children, which is immeasurable in terms of their educational and cognitive development. This personalized approach will create exceptional and cherished experiences for your little ones.

Daycare: Without a doubt, it is undeniable that pre-school teachers have the potential to be truly outstanding! Their dedication towards offering the individualized focus that children crave is commendable; regrettably, this often becomes impractical due to the overwhelming number of students they are assigned to, leaving them with limited time to devote to each child.

HOMEWORK HELP

Nanny: Are you ever challenged with staying organized amidst the deluge of paperwork that your children bring home from school? With numerous activities, fundraisers, parties, conferences, assignments, and homework, it is understandable that parents may feel overwhelmed when faced with sorting through it all after a tiring day at work. Consequently, many parents opt to assign this task to their trusted nanny, who will dutifully sift through the exhaustive information and keep Mom and Dad updated on everything happening at school. This alleviates any worry that they may have overlooked an important detail in the midst of their busy schedules.

Daycare: While after-school programs are generally enjoyable for children, they may not align with the educational emphasis and structure you desire to establish in ensuring that your children regularly complete their homework after classes conclude. As a result, this could occasionally impede your little ones from completing their assignments prior to dinner. It is important to acknowledge that fatigue can set in after dinner, making it challenging to concentrate as the evening progresses.

VACATION NANNY

Nanny: Have you ever experienced the need for a break after returning from a vacation? Absolutely � it happens to all of us! It is wonderful to have the opportunity to bring your nanny along when traveling so that you can spend valuable time with your children while also having the flexibility to pursue independent activities and recharge.

Daycare: When you go on vacation, it is common for daycares to require payment for reserving your "spot" at the facility. In other words, you will still be paying for childcare even though you won't have access to it while you are away.
