Daycare in Durham
 
Not exactly a travel question, but everyone's been so helpful with these posts. For those with kids, can anyone recommend a daycare in Durham or Research Triangle Park? I have the list, I'm just not exactly sure which ones are good.<BR>thanks!

Can you talk to friends in the area? what about the chamber of commerce or BBB. Trusting anonymity with travel is one thing but with the care of a child,not so sure. <BR><BR>Take the list and visit the daycare yourself and let instinct tell you what to do.

Yes, I'll do that for sure. I just don't really know anyone in the area. So I figured if someone had a lead then I could at least ask around based on that rather than starting from scratch.<BR>

You might look online for the local resource and referral agency. NACCRA has a website. The thing about child care is only you know what is important to you. that makes it hard to get advice from anyone else. The R&amp;R's have checklists of ideas of what to ask and what to look for, ultimately it is your decision.

Syd1, <BR><BR>Glad you're on your way to Durham. If I remember right, your husband is transferring to Duke? If so, Duke may have some options for daycare or offer discounts to some places. <BR><BR>I don't have kids but my suggestions is to find one close to home or work.
