Day care vs at home care

I always said when I had kids I would never put my child in day care.
After I had my son I was able to go back to work and had family or his daddy keep him. Now I am not so fortunate for I no longer have a reliable sitter so after weighing my options we have decided to put him in a daycare so I can continue to work. (Which still scares the heck out of me)
If you had a choice (and if money wasn't an issue of course) would you choose day care or at home sitter?

I have worked in Daycare's and I wouldn't put my children in one. I prefer an at home childcare if I had to choose. You can find a really good babysitter/provider who can give more love and attention to the children-the Daycare's have no one on one attention for the kids-there are too many of them. Sometimes there are mean kids who beat up on others and teachers cannot possibly catch it all.

A family member is ideal, sometimes we don't have that choice. When my kids were young and my husband and I were both working, I changed my shirt and only worked when my husband was home. We didn't get to see much of each other but that's what you do to keep your kids safe.
