Dear New York City Moms,
I've only been living in New York City for a couple of years, and I recently had a baby. I'm curious as to what parents do if they are unable to get their child into a daycare? Does everyone just go to hire a nanny?
In March, I put my baby on five waiting lists for daycares on the upper east side, and I was told that each of them had a one year waiting list. Since it's now June, and we need someone by late August, we feel that we have to start interviewing nannies, which are about 50% more expensive than daycare. Has anyone else had this same dilemma?
