pretty sure a nanny doesn't count as day care as it's a one on one form of care and it takes place in the home.

I don't know but in my text book it says 'There are many other different types of day care including home day care, where a child care professional cares for the the child in their own home (remember Mary Poppins?)' so i just assumed this was basically a nanny. :)
