Need daycare rec's

NewMrs07

Hi all, I am new to SA and posted about needing pediatrician rec's earlier. Thanks for all the useful responses!

Anyway, now I need to find a day care for my 11 month old. I will probably put him there 2 or 3 days a week and he will be over a year old then. I live close to Alamo Heights, can anyone recommend a good day care center that's reasonably priced? Thanks so much in advance!

Hi!  We live in Alamo Heights.  For that age, I'd look into Laurel Heights, First Presbyterian Church, and Alamo Heights Presbyterian.  They all offer full day childcare for kids under 1 (and up).  There are other churches too, but those are the first ones that come to mind.

ETA: Thought of one more.  Several moms I know use St. Andrews for daycare.

We also live in Alamo Heights and use St. Andrews Weekday School for daycare, and have liked it so far.  They use standard school day hours (8:30 to 3 or 3:30), so if you need before or after school care you will have to pay a bit extra.  DD has only been there for a month - since we moved to the neighborhood - and it seems pretty good.  I like that it's more of a school environment, or seems to be anyway.

I think, though, that there's often a waiting list - we put her on the list last fall, she got in for the 2010-11 school year, and then we were lucky and a spot opened up for the summer.  Let me know if you need any more info!
