i'm finding that its difficult to find good daycare....actually its downright scarey some of the places people leave their children!  anyone else having this difficulty?  I'm seriously considering staying home and taking in a couple of kids to watch...i mean i do have a b.s. in early childhood education

I am in the Dayton area and just starting to look at my options for day cares/sitters since I have heard of others finding it hard to find someone.  To be honest, I don't know where to begin!  If you have any advice or if you do end up deciding to watch kids in your home, please let me know!

Childtime in Centerville is a good one:) My cousins son goes there.

Go to the southern suburbs. My daughter goes to a reputable center in Kettering and has been there for three years, but there are some great centers in Kettering and south that have good reputations. We live in Springboro and there are probably ten centers that I can think of between here and Kettering that I'd be willing to send a child to. Some are very expensive, but generally you do get what you pay for. Where have you looked so far? There are some very scary ones out there in the area but also some nice ones.

What part of town are you in? I've heard really good things about the Day Academy in Springboro. It's changed owners and names, but I continue to hear good things.

We use Oak Creek Day Care in Kettering.  They are so loving in the Infant room.  I went to preschool there and I loved it (From what my mom told me).
