Daycare question

[Guest guest]

Hello, everyone.

I introduced myself a few weeks ago that I am expecting a girl who

may have bilateral clubfeet.

As I start to prepare for my first child's arrival, I am facing some

of the decisions that I have to make. I was thinking about hiring a

personal babysitter for part time (but substantial amount of money)

and ask her do some housework as well, but while interviewing her

and some other people, I am dealing with a lot of unpleasant issues

already (they want to get paid more with more hours, which I can't

afford more and also have trust issue), even before I mention

anything about clubfoot.

So, probably at 12 weeks after she is born or so, I am considering

to send my daughter to daycare probably 3 or 4 times a week.

My question is that-- is there going to be any difficulty to send

her to daycare BECAUSE OF her clubfoot? Especially, I know if she

gets treated, she will probably wear a brace for full time at least

for 3 months and possibly afterwards. Do you think daycare center

will handle this professionally? Are there any other diffrent things

I have to expect, because of her clubfoot?

To be honest, this is really my issue with hiring a personal helper.

I am still hesitant because my daughter will be more comfortable at

our own place at such young age. But at the same time, if I can't

trust someone fully, I see no point of hiring someone personally and

pay that much money. So, I am wondering and I would appreciate if

anyone can give me some of your past experience, if you sent your

clubfoot kids to the daycare at such young age (3 months or so).

I guess this whole question may be irrelevant to clubfoot (daycare

vs babysitter), but because I will hate to see my child not being

treated properly because of clubfoot,I want to prepare myself with

better knowledge. So any candid feedback will be appreciated!
