Q&A: When in your pregnancy did you start interviewing and deciding which day care to use?

Question by ♥Mommy to Carter♥: When in your pregnancy did you start interviewing and deciding which day care to use?
I am around 6 weeks pregnant and my sister told me I should start looking at daycares and trying to get on waiting lists. When did you start doing this during your pregnancy if you decided to use child care? I live in Raleigh, NC, does anyone have an idea about the average cost per month of child care?

Any advice would be appreciated.

I would definately start looking right away. Here in Madison there’s usually up to a year or two waiting list and the cost for infant is anywhere between 250-300. Good luck and congrats!

    I would go ahead and start looking, it couldnt hurt. Im in Georgia and the average cost for infants is about 150 a week

  2. terrapinqueen76 says:

    I’m not sure about Raleigh, NC, but when I started looking here in Richmond, VA, it was too late, as I was 2 months away from my delivery date and most of the day care places had 6-8 month waiting lists!!! I’ve managed to still makes things work with care for my baby, but if you want to use daycare and you want a good one, you better get on a waiting list ASAP!

  3. Kelsey says:

    It depends on when you plan on going back to work…. There are wating lists most of the time though.

    But I am from Raleigh!!! The YMCA off of New Falls of the Neuse (beside the Wakefield schools) is GREAT! Best Y I have ever seen. They take all ages, have a wonderful staff, there is a waiting list to be a summer counseler, and my sister sends all three of her kids there. There is also a daycare across from Prescott (my old neighborhood) that seems smaller and nice.

    Best of luck! I wish I still lived there!

  4. Sherry N says:

    I didn’t use daycare. I got out of the service (Air Force…my enlistment time was up anyway and my hubby was higher rank than me by 1 stripe) and stayed home. Now, almost 10 yrs later, I’m a sahm to 2 boys.
