244: The Nanny Episode


Listen Later

In this solo episode, I answer listener questions on all things nanny-related, from why we made the decision to get full-time care; to how we went about the process from start to finish. I share how I’ve been reconnecting with myself lately and why it has a lot to do with our recent nanny hire, what our history of childcare has looked like through the years, and why we chose a nanny vs. daycare. I then answer questions on how we found our nanny, what the interview process looked like, and how we figured out what worked for us. I also discuss the guilt I feel for “losing” time with my kids and struggling with FOMO, how I create distance while working from home, and why it’s so important to be honest and transparent about childcare.
