If you are childcare-curious or actively seeking any type of childcare for your babies or toddlers, you need to listen to this solo episode. I leave no stone unturned.

I talk about just about every single variation of childcare from my personal and professional experience both on the receiving and giving end from pre-motherhood and currently as a mom of two toddlers.

In this solo I discuss:

• the challenges of full-time outsourcing childcare to grandparents
• the differences between preschool and daycare
• what exactly is a mother's helper and what is her function?
• why and when might you want a mother's helper vs. a sitter vs. a nanny?
• why might a stay-at-home mom want or need childcare assistance
• the challenges of trying to piecemeal the best care and support when we do not live in a hunter-gatherer society

Looking for a caretaker for your baby or toddler? I've created a guide full of the best questions you can ask your daycare, preschool, nanny, sitter or mother's helper to gauge if they're the right fit.
