Anyone put their baby in infant care from 2 to 3 months old?

I have a friend who placed her baby during 2nd month as she needs to go back to work (2 months maternity leave for foreigner). If you have a longer maternity leave you can choose to stay longer with your baby at home until return to work. It is advisable that you take 1 to 2 weeks time to let your baby adapt to the new ifc.
