Infant care vs hiring a domestic helper
Hi all, how did you decide between enrolling baby into infant care vs hiring a helper to care for baby after the maternity & paternity leave ends? I’m leaning towards infant care as it’s specialized care for baby and it will provide stimulation to the baby while my husband prefers hiring a helper since it will be 1-1 care plus helper can help with chores. We can rotate our wfh to ensure that at least one of us will be home with the helper but I still feel that we will be distracted by work and the helper’s care for baby will just be basic care…the longer husband and I discuss this, the slower we are in getting a space for our baby in the ideal infant care near our home…
