Helper of Infant Care?

Should I employ a helper or send my 3 months old baby to an infant care? I do not receive much help from my parents. I am currently taking care of my own baby. I do not have much time to pump milk, settle my own meals and do house chores.

Employing a helper also means that you won't have to do household chores and will have an extra pairs of hands to help you in other duties.
