have you considered speaking with a family in your neighborhood about sharing a nanny? you each pay half the fees and split between watching them in your house or theirs. usually you each pay just a little bit more depending on how many children there are to watch, but a friend of mine did this and was easily able to afford the costs. plus you get the added benefit of your child being close or in-home and most nannies will do light housekeeping/meal prep.

another option: if there's a college student or trustworthy teenager in your neighborhood, have them watch the baby for a few hours during the day while you work. or hire them in the evening and do your work then if you're able to do so. :)

good luck
