I think daycare is great. I'm a stay at home mom, but take my son 2 days a week for a few hours. He's learned so much and speaks so well...I owe that mostly to daycare. Also, the social experience as @bwhite55019 mentioned.
Im a sahm mom but I take my 2 year old son to an in home daycare 6-10 hours a week just so he can socialize. It has been great for me too, We purchased a house here a year ago and didn't know anyone but I have met some other mom's thru the daycare.
I work at a daycare. There are pros and cons. I think even if You don't have to take them..You Should part time..a couple daysa week or something. Kids need interaction with other kids. They learn so many more social skills. I also think It helps define themselves. It helps with seperation anxiety. If they know nothing but staying with you..leaving for kindergarten is going to be tough for the both of you. If you choose the right daycare..they Have a plan of development with the children. They go off of lesson plans to teach the kids certain things.
There is also some cons though. Some of the kids at my daycare I feel like spend More time there Thank at home. You might miss out on certain milestones that are important for you. Taking the first step .pottying for the first time. Writing their name..saying certain words.
