Childcare in Providence (environment, work, medical)

[Ktoldread]

Hello!
I just finished my last class/rotation in Medical School (YAY!) and am hoping to match at Hasbro in Providence. We have a 26 month old daughter and number two due in a couple of weeks so are looking for childcare options as waitlists can be looooong! I haven't had much luck searching the internet (and craigslist doesn't have a specific providence link and not much on there, either). Anyone have suggestions for quality childcare options?

Thanks for any input!! We really hope to work it out!
Katie

This is just a GUESS-I haven't lived in Providence for years but-on the East Side, I guess that many people hire a foreign nannys through a service or try to use the JCC or similar community centers for Childcare. Someone will hopefully have a recent experience for you. Good Luck!

I have lived in the Providence area for most of my life. I have a 2 and 4 year old. They are currently being cared for in family child care by a woman who has more the 16 years experience. She provides an extremely loving environment and caters to each child's individual needs. Did I mention she hasn't taken a sick day in more than 2 years?
Check out her website:
Rocky Hill Family Child Care
I highly recommend her.
Feel free to ask me any questions.
