Infant care dilemma

Hi all, anyone has any thoughts on private vs government infant care? My hubby and I are both working, in laws and parents are also not able to help look after... not much options left. Was suggested to hire helper instead of sending to infant care, but heard a lot of horror stories hence not so keen to hire. What are your thoughts? Appreciate any response :) thank you.

I have both helper and send my baby to IFC. Helper to mainly help with household chores and getting my firstborn ready for childcare in the morning. and we send our baby to infant care as I prefer her to have a more structured routine and learn more social skills. Babies are more independent in IFC but of coz, be ready for ur baby to get sick often. Tt's also why we take helper too as she can help to take care of our sick child at times when I and hubby couldn't take leave. If i can only have 1 option, I'd rather send baby to IFC.
