We're due on May 22 with our first child, and I am getting nervous about finding affordable daycare. We are interested in either a daycare facility or someone who does it out of their home. Any recommendations for something in the Novi, Farmington Hills, Northville or Livonia area would be appreciated.
Re: Daycare in Novi/Farm/Livonia
We used Bright Horizons at Farmington Hills from time my DD was 11 weeks until 20 weeks. We loved it, especially the infant care. We recently switched to a center closer to where we live, and I think the transition has been harder on me than my DD.
In terms of affordability, centers are more expensive than in-home. I thought the tuition at Bright Horizons was competitive for the area.
Try searching online. www.daycarematch.com has lots of listings of daycares. You can also try Craigslist. They have a special section for daycare.
Good luck,
Mel
