Indecisiveness

Vent

My husband’s aunt has offered to take care of our 8 month old son full time while my husband and I work. We currently have him in daycare Monday through Friday. I was on board with the idea initially because it might be cheaper, and she offered to care for him in our house instead of taking him to her house. But after speaking to a friend about it, I have changed my mind. She told me how his aunt could decide to not care for him out of nowhere. She also mentioned the level of care at daycare vs at home. Meaning, since she’s not immediate family the trust is not 100% there. With the daycare, I could see what is going on through the cameras. With the daycare, there is a level of professionalism and reliability. The aunt would be cheaper but now I am feeling iffy. My husband says I’m indecisive. I don’t know what to do. I feel like I can’t ever make a sound decision without letting another person influence me. Thoughts?
