I taught preschool before having Caty, but was working for a low-income school district that most of the families childcare was subsidized. I just cannot believe how much some of you are paying, it's horrible. Now these programs that I came across are all full day programs, which are running about $150 or so a week. Yes the one that we are going to look at is only $150 a month - but it is only Tuesday and Thursday morning for about 3 hours. We know that this is a great price, but on the other hand, couldn't really pay much more than that, seeing as I am a stay at home mom and Scott is a teacher. You all know how underpaid teachers are. I'll let everyone know what I think of the preschool after our visit - we'll probably go tomorrow morning.Jaimehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17241259845543875812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7958577645857202346.post-47514216030766040562008-09-08T19:36:00.000-07:002008-09-08T19:36:00.000-07:00That Caty is so stinkin' cute!

Caty will love being with the other children!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03926703682445820266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7958577645857202346.post-70013892053288774872008-09-08T15:58:00.000-07:002008-09-08T15:58:00.000-07:00Augh! $150 a month?? Whew... we pay $150 a week ...Augh! $150 a month?? Whew... we pay $150 a week minimum! LOL<BR/><BR/>Of course, we're full time all the way around, so it's gonna be more, but still... Man, LA is expensive!<BR/><BR/>Right now Caitlin's daycare is $185 a week, and that's pretty much the cheapest we've found that we're actually happy with... Evan's afterschool care runs just under $500 a month including the van that picks him up from kindergarten and takes him to the site. If we lived in a slightly different neighborhood, or if we'd realized there was an open enrollment period, he could have attended the school that shares its campus with his after-school program and he could walk across campus instead of catching a van, but oh well - it is what it is, eh?<BR/><BR/>I'm glad you've found one that works... have you had a chance to talk to them about Caitlyn at all yet?Mike Mallinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05668477634350769490noreply@blogger.com
