Are preschools available? Day care? Are these expensive? What has been your experience with them, if any? Do the schools provide before- and/or after-school care?

Yes, but they are very expensive. Most families with young children had a live-in nanny instead. - Mar 2021


Widely available. I would recommend having kids attend pre-K at a daycare as opposed to elementary school because the daycares are somewhat more affordable. Maple Bear has a good reputation. Our younger son loved Mini-Miracles, but it is currently closed due to the pandemic. - Jan 2021


Yes, lots of options. Also very expensive but quality it ok. We use Kidville. - Aug 2011


Friends with children find daycare pretty easily. Many of my friends hire live-in nannies for little expense. Sadly, most of the children I teach are raised by nannies, maids or drivers. - Jan 2011
