We live in the Bay Area but DH works an hour and half away (sometimes can work at home) and I sometimes also work an hour and fifteen minutes away from home, depending on which office I'm working out of. The office by my house only has a couple other people and none of them have little kids. I guess I need to figure out where DH and I will and where we want to have LO in day care.... :-/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-find-good-infant-care#post-1572914 Wed, 16 Apr 2014 14:18:46 +0000 looch 1572914@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would probably look for a nanny that one of my friends used. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-find-good-infant-care#post-1572912 Wed, 16 Apr 2014 14:17:41 +0000 mrsjyw 1572912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've heard care.com is great for flexible caretakers that can work those types of one-off schedules. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-find-good-infant-care#post-1572905 Wed, 16 Apr 2014 14:15:40 +0000 blackbird 1572905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>in-home daycares are very flexible. I know mine watches some kids part time, 2 days a week. You can check through the state for licensed in-home daycares. Otherwise it is VERY word of mouth </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-find-good-infant-care#post-1572885 Wed, 16 Apr 2014 14:09:25 +0000 MrsF 1572885@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We didn't have a lot of options and I needed someone with long days and a very flexible schedule (also 1-2 days / week). I knew that no center would accommodate that so we posted an add on care.com and got lots of responses. We met with and interviewed several people and found one that we love! She still watches M at 18 months and we are very close to her and her kids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-find-good-infant-care#post-1572858 Wed, 16 Apr 2014 13:59:49 +0000 Mamaof2 1572858@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Are you currently working? I asked co-workers and got some recs </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-find-good-infant-care#post-1572853 Wed, 16 Apr 2014 13:58:22 +0000 NorCalWayfarer 1572853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 28 weeks pregnant and haven't started looking for infant in the Bay Area. I know my mom can help 2 days a week and I'm hoping MIL can help another 1-2 days a week, leaving me with needing to find infant care for the other 1-2 days a week, staring in mid-November (realistically we could probably finagle something until January). </p> <p>So how did you go about finding good infant day care? I've tried posting to my local Mother's Club and have come up with a couple recommendations, and have also looked on Yelp. I'm just not sure where else to look.... Thanks! </p>
