I am due to go back to work 2 or 3 days a week in January and think I should probably start to look at the options for childcare but don't have a clue where to start.
DD will be 1 by that time but I still feel very panicky about the thought of leaving her as I have not left her at all so far.
In a way I think I would prefer a childminder but don't know how you go about 'interviewing' if that is the right word. What are the benefits of nurseries vs childminders? I have a list of childminders and nurseries in the area but the information it gives is quite limited - do you just phone around them/visit them etc?
Would love to hear from anyone who has recently been through this and has some advice on how to select a childminder or nursery and what the benefits are of each.
