Edit: just looked at Rhett’s link. Both on on-campus cc centers charge on a full-time basis. With one parent home 3 weeks per month, this particular family probably does not need that. A private day care home or a nanny might work better for them, although don’t think the nanny would be less expensive than paying for FT care at the ECEC ($675 mo) and using it as-needed.[/quote]
Where did you see 675/month? I see 1000/month for preschool and KG, which is quite a lot for full-time care (though maybe not for 92122), and I can think of at least three reputable places in inland north county cheaper than that. I don’t understand why they have a waitlist at that price.[/quote]
Maybe 10 yearsa ago it was $675…Eugene is correct. I had my daughter in UCSD day care a couple years ago. It’s over 1000$ for infants full time. Not many day care centers close to UCSD, and it IS a very good day care center – much better than let’s say KinderCare or LaPetite Academy – lunch & snacks are included (for preschoolers)! – that’s why 1 year long waitlist. Maybe now with the economy, the list may be shorter.
