Is anyone still looking for daycare?

I feel so far behind... but I've having the worst time trying to figure this out.  Both DH and I work as Retail Managers and at least once a week we'll both be closing until 11 PM.  I need to talk to my manager to see if we can get on a set schedule - but I HIGHLY doubt it. 

I'm trying to find a nanny - without using one of those sittercity.com websites - cause it costs SO MUCH!  

Am I the only one still looking.  I'm starting to freak out!  I'm going to be having to spend my leave looking for a place for my LO...

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

  • I haven't even looked yet...I should probably do that soon. Oops! Good thing my mom is around if I need her and my husband and I both have a flexible job!

  • We're still looking... we started the search back in June but our circumstances have changed in the last few weeks and now we're kind of limbo... I won't be able to actually make a decision on daycare until Jan, so probably not until towards the end of my maternity leave.

    I'm stressing a little bit about it but keep reminding myself everything will work out..

  • we still are, but between DH and myself we have 14 weeks after LO is born where we won't need childcare, so i'm not stressing too much... yet. we think we may have a place, but we're not 100% in love with it. we're just having a hard time finding a place that works with our schedules.

  • care.com only cost us like 30 bucks to find our nanny. Best choice we ever made.

  • We're still looking around, but we have a deposit down and a spot on a waiting list just in case. Things fill up fast here, especially in the location we need (we only have one car, and we want my husband to be able to walk or bike to get the baby if he doesn't have the car) - if we waited any longer, we wouldn't have a spot until next summer.
