Hi,
when settling in a new country, working parents are mostly concerned about finding child care services for their children.
What can you share with us about the child care system in Pennsylvania ?
How much is daycare in Pennsylvania?
Is the staff qualified at these daycare centers?
What are the usual opening hours?
Do they provide other services at the daycare center?
Any daycare center in Pennsylvania you would like to recommend to other expats? What makes them special?
Thank you for participating!
