I was on 9, hedge your bets by choosing daycares with more than one infant class and ones that don't specifically lean to a govt agency (Just Us Kids, with 9 infant spots and 100,000 employees who have priority over you).

As many as possible. 14 months on 12 lists & nada.

Most people I know were on at least six lists to get a spot.

Yeah I actually was looking downtown. Seven?!? We've certainly been slacking. Thanks for the heads-up.

WHere are you looking? If you're looking downtown, you should be on more waitlists. I was on seven and got one spot.

I'm looking for infant day care beginning in January 2014. We are currently on two day care wait lists since March, and I am wondering if we should get on another (or even a couple more) to get in somewhere by the time I plan to return to work from maternity leave? Interested in any thoughts on this based on other parents' experiences...
