My child is not necessarily better because of daycare but he is a better, more well adjusted child because I was his primary caregiver.

My DD benefited from the social aspect of being able to have so many different playmates but again, she was social to begin with so she would have thrived in any situation.

My DH grew up in daycare. His mom provided care 24/7 to other families. His experience as a daycare child is more negative than positive.

I am sure everyone has their own set of circumstances and outside influences that definitely define who they are and having a mom who runs a daycare can be both detrimental and positive at the same time for kids.
