Episode 16 Special Guests: Kelsie Long & Carrie Kaczmarek Bland

Research shows that the first three years of a child's life are critically important in developing healthy attachment to their primary caregiver (the mother). Instinctively at four, I knew daycares were metaphorical orphanages, but what about private nannies? Better ratio, right? I decided to talk with two nannies about their experiences in stepping in for "Mom."

This is part one of a two part series attempting to reframe the childcare debates...instead of asking, "What can we do to help working mothers? Let's start with asking, "What's best for the child? What's best for the family?"
