Affordable childcare options in Richmond, insurance claims processor here

The daycare near me wants more than I can pay. I have been trying to stay organised about it. I am willing to trade favours. How long did subsidies take?

Libraries and community centres run free activities that gave me a couple of hours.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 4 months ago, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
