Adding a second reduces work in some ways. If they are close enough in age they will play together without supervision. If you can get a third in relatively quickly they can all play together.

About age 4+ they can mostly be counted on not to kill themselves if left alone. About 6+ they can be totally unsupervised without even breaking things.

If you get to 3+ consider Au Pairs. It turns the scalar cost of daycare into a fixed cost and you don't feel like your paying for nothing when they get sick.
