My daycare had some kind of churchy-thing going on, and it didn't stick laugh out loud
Church is a big thing around here. In fact, DH is the only one at his company who doesn't go to church laugh out loud

Not that I'm against the kids being exposed to religion of any sorts, I'm just not a fan of preaching

I can do that "au pair" thing Dr. J talks about. I'm very fluent in southern.

Who would have thought finding daycare would be so hard Annoyed

I don't wanna put them in daycare Crying
You know I don't know if you have one close by you, but DS went to The Goddard School for two years and it was FANTASTIC. He'd still be going there now if we hadn't moved last fall. He loved it, and they were all just great. Top-notch staff and directors.

I think the average around here is 120-180/ wk for a toddler. The ones ran by a church and the inexperienced in-home providers are at the low end.
Holy crap that's cheap. DS was going only two days a week and it was $150 a week. Full time would have been $1100 a month. Bigeye

None by me Frown

Yeah I suppose it's cheap compared to other areas, but I live in a small area where wages are lower than bigger cities and cost of living isn't much cheaper laugh out loud

I'll probably try them out at a center vs an in-home provider. Everyone I called can't take DD cause they are maxed out on their "baby" openings.
