Thanks flea!
It was on the tip of my brain.
Dang. At $250 a week ($50/day), ours is one of the more affordable places in San Francisco--all the others we looked at ran $60-75 a day.
And the daycare/preschool we'd been waitlisted for for 15 months finally has an opening in November -- and they've raised their rates by $300 a month so it's now $1365/m with a $400 deposit. We're frantically scrabbling for alternatives right now (Matilda adores her present caregiver, but the two peers she's been there with forever are moving on, all the others are at least 18 months younger, and the two new ones taking the open slots will almost certainly be wee infants, so staying on indefinitely isn't the best option for her developmentally).
Good luck with finding daycare, Zmahems....
When I was a preschooler, my mom wasn't working. I have fond memories of playing with Lincoln Logs (or those wooden brick things) while my mom watched soaps and drank coffee....
What do you need to know?
Nothing specific. Some judge has to give a speech and his message just said he would like "everything." I'm just going to gather what I can from our collection today and see how that flies.
Dear Library Users: "Everything" is not actually a helpful description of what you need. "Everything" means you will end up with a lot of crap.
JZ, that sounds exactly like my sitaution in Brooklyn right now. There's just no way around it.
Wasn't a push for some sort of national childcare thingie a part of the liberal agenda of the late '70s?
That sounds like some kind of Nazi agenda!
Childcare is always hard.

Right up there with maternity leave. Which my employer does not offer.
