[quote=Anonymous]Wait lists usually aren’t as long for older children, and there will be openings as options open up for older kids (a lot of non-daycare programs open up at 3). There is always shuffle in August/September as the oldest kids move on. Anecdotally, I’ve had to switch daycares twice, and never had a problem on short notice. Once was with a five month old from a home daycare to a center (toured center on Thursday, started on Monday), and the other time was with a 4 yo from one center to another (toured center on Friday, started two weeks later). Once you have decided where you want to be, tour/get on the lists at the local daycares, and then follow up regularly. The squeaky wheel gets oiled.[/quote]
