When to start looking for child care?
I am a soon to be first time mom and not really sure when we should start to look.
Our situation is a little complicated... Baby is due 11/24 and our house should be done right around the same time. We currently live in Westchester but will be moving to Ridge. Can anyone recommend childcare options around that area?

I started looking around 15 weeks or so. Some places I went to look at were actually booked for when I was going back to work... 9 months later!! Definitely suggest starting the process sooner than later !

I couldn't believe it! Luckily our first choice was available, but my really close second choice is STILL full!

I would start looking as soon as possible.
The daycare I want has a 6 month waiting list!
