[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the issue is that there aren't as many options for elementary age kids in Arlington instead of extended day. My impressions is that in fairfax, there are a lot of daycares/after school centers that exist if you don't get into sacc. In arlington, there's only maybe two other options, or getting an au pair/nanny/babysitter. [b]The discrepancy is because up until a few years ago, extended day was guaranteed, so there wasn't a huge demand for daycare for elementary age kids.[/b] [/quote] This. If there continues to be a shortage of Exd Day space, I'm sure vendors will come in to provide that service but right now there are very few options. I went back to work FT mid-school-year and our school was full. My only option was the YMCA. It was fine for the half-year I needed it but the kids were happy to go to Ext Day at their school with their friends the next year.[/quote]
