[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Centers are very expensive for babies and toddlers in the DC area, but the price tends to drop quite a bit once they turn 3. There are a number of preschools in the area that only do 3 & 4 year old classes, but far fewer that have infant and toddler classes. So the centers are basically able to charge a ton for those younger classes and still have a wait list. Many people around here use in home or a nanny (or nanny share) and transition to a center-based preschool at age 3. [/quote] It's also the case that infant care is the most expensive to provide, mostly because of the higher required ratios. At our center (a non-profit), I think the infant room barely breaks even.
