[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous](Not OP) I’m in DC and YES the waitlist fees are terrible! I only put my oldest on two, and would have gotten off one in April 2020 so yeah. A couple hundred dollars wasted. 🙄 Fortunately in the great COVID disruption I got my oldest into a daycare I like with sibling preference, I only needed one waitlist fee for my second. I assume the waitlist fees are a good way to make extra cash for businesses that are pretty minimally profitable to start with but it really sucks as a parent.[/quote] I will note both waitlists I was on were perfectly transparent about where I was — but it’s hard to know how helpful being 43rd on the waitlist is when there are people who get on it before they’re even pregnant and people don’t get removed when their kids age out of the spot they’re waiting for. :-/[/quote]
