Thank you!


In DTSS for that age, you have Goddard, Easter Seals and Quality Time for the center-based daycares. NOAA has a Bright Horizons, but it's hard to get into as a non-employee (but no harm in trying?). United Therapeutics also has a Bright Horizon; for a short time they were allowing non-employees, so you might want to try that too.

I live in Silver Spring right across from Shepherd Park and I agree, child care pickings are so slim around here. We ended up choosing a center near work in Rockville. We love our center but wish we could have found something as nice and affordable closer to home.

Buenos Amigos is a nice in-home, if you’re looking into that as well. It’s in Forest Glen.

If you work downtown, there are a bunch of daycares on Kennedy Street in Brightwood Park that might work.

Our daycare was in Bethesda, but if you haven't already, you should join the SP listserv and ask there for recs--people will be happy to chime in, as there are a lot of young families in the neighborhood these days. Welcome to the neighborhood!

Under 2K a month would be ideal!

Childcare other than daycare or preschool.

Goddard isn't affordable, but people seem to like it and it would be convenient.

In Takoma Park (but starting a bit older), there's Takoma Park Child Development Center (TPCDC) and Takoma Children's School.

Easter Seals has a new director and it seems that people are happy with them again.

We are moving to DC from VA and are in search of a daycare for a 1 year old. I feel like pickings are slim. Any great, affordable, daycare suggestions for Shepherd Park/Takoma/Silver Spring area?

Thank you!
