Tbilisi - Post Report Question and Answers

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?

Nannies and day care are certainly available. - Aug 2024


Yes. We have not used them yet. - Jun 2020


Pretty sure people pay nannies/housekeepers. - Jan 2019


There are preschools that start at age 2.5 and 3. They are not that expensive. Plus, most families have full or part time nannies. These nannies are often very well educated and are paid $4 - $5 an hour, because being a nanny for an expat family is one of the best paying jobs they can get. (With an average monthly salary for a nurse right at $350, being a nanny pays way better.) While QSI does have a good offering of after school activities, most kids go home and the nanny is usually at home. - Feb 2017
