[quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Thanks to everyone for their responses!

I dont think we are thinking of his with the goal being at or under some threshold but I needed a gut check and was worried that I needed to consider other options.  Especially with a potential change in mortgage.

We originally had DS in a cheaper daycare and moved him to his current (not because of money, but other issues) so I know there are a few other options out there that can save us a little. I accepted long ago that it is what it is for availability and cost in this area.
 
Another factor I didnt mention is that we are likely going to opt for Catholic school after daycare. I always knew it was going to be a few years of a slog and we will have a dip in school costs but not significant.

Re. Nannies not being just about money - totally understand and completely agree. I like the structure and routine he gets at daycare.  DH and I always chuckle when he comes home knowing a new song or surprises us and knows a new animal or color. And I generally feel more confident in a daycare decision over one provider.   DH and I both travel for work and not having the dropoff/pickup race every day would be nice.  A girl can dream!  Hey its training for the school years![/quote]
