The debate has finally ended! Daycare was not for us.
**sorry long story on our experience at the babysitters today**
Every since I found out i was pregnant with my twins, the debate of staying full time at my work or becoming a SAHM started. We have went back & forth SO many times, thinking of a million different options on what/ how to do it financially. We priced daycares & it just wasn’t reasonable for me to continue to work & pay for 2 babies for daycare. We made a list of financial responsibilities & I could be a SAHM if my husband got a 2nd job or I got a part time job, but we’d be JUST getting by. So we eventually found a private babysitter, we thought this was it, our final solution. My twins are now 2.5 months and I start back to work in 5 days. I decided to take my twins to her house while she was watching her other kids, so I could show her the ropes with my boys & so she could get a feel for things....THANK GOODNESS I decided to do this because it was awful. She had 6 other kids there ages from 1.5 to 5. The 1.5 was super sick & coughed & sneezed on my babies THREE times & she was fine with it. The babysitter wiped his nose multiple times & then handled my baby without washing her hands. She changes their pull ups & didnt wash her hands. I laid my one baby in the pack n play so I could get his bottle and the other children swarmed him trying to pick him up bc they wanted to help and hold him 😳 they were all running around, hitting each other.. She was so distracted with the others, there’s absolutely no way she could take on my 2 infants safely. I was there for 3.5 hours & she hardly corrected them around my babies...so it made me think “what would this be like if I WASNT here?!” I literally wanted to throw up, & I cried as soon as I got in the vehicle with them. Idk maybe I’m just overreacting bc I’m their mom haha but it did not seem like a clean or safe environment for them. So I told my husband & we both agreed, I’m putting my 2 week notice in and being a stay at home mom. (My mom took vacation time to watch my boys for those 2 weeks lol) I AM SO RELIEVED NOW!!!
So hello to all my fellow SAHM 💗😊
