I read that article as a mom who struggles to find childcare. And you know I see there? Well trained teachers who will spend the day with my kid doing age appropriate activities -- music, play, eating, napping...just another day in the life of a little one. The price for such attention is high, but their target market is clearly the high earning New York professional.
And food for thought....I have a 2 year old and am on waiting lists for 2 daycare centers -- one has an 18 month waiting list, the other is 2 years. The 3 other childcare centers I contacted have closed their waiting lists. And this is for a 2 year old, infants childcare is even harder to find.
So, I stay at home for another year or two. Childcare folks, expensive and hard to find.
