[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC doesn't have "free daycare" for 0-3. Unless you are destitute / living under poverty line.[/quote] This is true. But there are free preschools starting at age 3 in some DC neighborhoods.[/quote] This isn't always a great choice. Your options are limited by chance lottery and there's no guarantee the school you chance to get into will be a good fit. I'm the PP and part of the reason we are leaving is because we tried PS3 and it has not been a great experience (no real fault of the school, our child just wasn't ready for 10 hours of structure 5 days a week). I'm tired of paying the equivalent of a mortgage for daycare and I can't afford to have another child in daycare here. At the end of the day the financial pressure dictates everything in our life, and that is no way to live - for us or for our child.[/quote]
