Any recommendations? We’ve been at the Fairfax winwood for awhile now and the frequent rate hikes are killing us. Any other recommendations to consider? I know we didn’t like anything else (in budget anyway) back when we were looking many years ago. But now with infant rates hitting $564, I don’t think the quality is worth what we’re paying, especially with another on the way. |
Are you interested in home daycares? If you are, I recommend taking some tours through Carelulu. They are at least $500+ cheaper than center based daycares. |
Not interested in home daycares. Thanks for the suggestion though! |
We’ve been happy at the Chesterbrook Academy on Roger Stover. Their rates are still sub-$500 |
We had a really wonderful experience at Sparkles in Fairfax. I know there were some negative posts about the Crystal City location, but the Fairfax one was really well run when we were there (admittedly before the pandemic so I’m not sure how it is now). Their teachers seem to stick around a long time, which we liked and there weren’t frequent rate hikes while we were there. |
Centerpointe Academy, just opened up, everything is brand new and they only hire legitimate and certified teachers whereas a lot of the daycares don't always use degreed teachers around Northern VA. |
