St. Paul's in Chevy Chase might fit the bill, but infants might be closer to $1600 now?

Karasik in Silver Spring is under $1,500 for infants, but the only babies getting in either have medical needs or have older siblings at the center. It's good as a long range plan for #2!
Otherwise, keep looking for in-home options--and try mom's listserves for more particular ideas.

What do you both do, that you require such low cost childcare?
how on earth is this relevant, and since when is $1500/mo low cost?
- someone who pays $4k/mo for 2 kids in a center
Agree that it isn't relevant, but $1500/mo for infant care is very low cost. Objectively, yes that is a lot of money to pay per month for any service. But for infant care in this area? Especially closer in to DC where she is looking? That is super low.
Not really. I pay 1000 at an excellent in-home daycare in Silver Spring--though not close in SS. Unfortunately there are not any openings for infants and there won't be until current kids start turning 2 in October.

There's this google sheet that someone on here started years ago, but it's mainly DC resources. Have a look.

You are very unlikely to find a center that charges less than $1600. It would not be cost effective for them given the very low ratio of caregivers to infants required by local laws. If you do find one, I would question the quality of that care.
In-home daycares would be your best bet.
