Childcare or grandparents for 20mo? what would you choose and do you have any experience to share. On one hand I feel that grandparents love is good for my child but on the other hand I feel that CC will help my child to be less coddled and more independent and adventurous (eg grandparents carry lots, don't bring him to play group due to zika, helps him too much and give him little room for exploration and me-time) as he he seems like a rather cautious boy. He's very well socialised so that's not thr main reason for gg CC. should i wait til he is older for CC ? is it cruel to put him in at such a young age?

Currently i am in tis dilemma too. In the end, we decide to send to cc. Reason being 1. We want our lo to mingle around 2. We did promise my mum that once my lo turn 18month,we will try our best to put her in cc 3. We want my mum to rest and relax as she is turning 70 yrs old.. At first i am afraid,as all along i have my mum with me as my hubby is always overseas. But like my husband said,we have to start sending her to cc,the sooner the better. If ever i need help,i will have to ask my mil nw as my mum will in jb most of the time. But i did ask my husband to make an effort to spend sometime with my mum in jb over the weekends. We agree on that n nw my lo is on the waiting list. We will just take 1 step at a time.
