| If you got off the waitlist for an infant placement, how long did it take? |

| We got on the waitlist when my wife was pregnant and we were offered a spot 2.5 years later. Kiddo started this winter. We were at another daycare, but switched to Diplotots. It’s saving us a lot of money. |

| OP if you don't get an answer here, I would suggest you post your question on FSO Moms or Trailing Spouses. |

| We signed up when I was 7 weeks pregnant and got my spot as my four month maternity leave was ending. |

| Signed up when I was 1-1.5 months pregnant and received a spot when child was over 2 years old. The facilities (at Columbia Plaza) might have been ok for an infant, but did not feel adequate for a toddler. We ended up using a great neighborhood daycare/school option instead for the same cost. |

The daycares at government agencies all have punny names. There's Just Us Kids at the DOJ and Tiny Findings at the GAO. |

| Got on the waiting list immediately when pregnant. They finally had a spot when our daughter was 18 months. We transferred there and were able to get a spot for our second kid as an infant. When our son was a baby, about 75% of the infant spots were taken by siblings of kids already at the center. |
