opinion of using more than one nursery

[Marzipan23]

hello, child isnt born yet but already having to look at nurseries!
Just wondered if anyone had any experience of using 2 different nurseries and how that worked for you?
second question - if you and your partner both work full time how do you balance pick ups and drop offs between you?

Why though? Lots of people do a childminder initially because it’s a more homely setting then add on school nursery/preschool for school prep when DC is 3-4, still using the childminder for wrap around. Otherwise it’s not going to be ideal and will make settling harder- I’ve otherwise only heard of doing 2 different day nurseries out of desperation because they couldn’t get the hours they need at 1.
