On Fort Myers Beach, we have a similar situation, with after day care provided for students at Bay Oaks Elementary School at a nominal fee.  It's great to live in a town that cares and caters to the residents.

Great community info.

Cynthia, What an excellent thing to let parents know....I am impressed with your area and the low cost they have for childcare there.  When my children were young they had to say in after care 1 1/2 hurs...it was $75 per week per CHILD.  The prices you listed are wonderful.

Larry,
Neither can I, it's the best deal around and how convenient!

Hello Lloyd,
You hit the nail on the head, it's the town/community taking care of its residents.  You have to love it.

Hi Jim,
Does Wake County offer anything like this?

Keith,
Most parents do work and childcare is a big worry for most.  Thank you.

Hi Carole,
The cost of living is much more affordable here than in your area and this is a great example.  This is quite a bit less than private day care.

Elizabeth,
Thank you, it is amazing the information available when you take the time to dig a little.  Now where do I put my shovel?

Hello James,
School and childcare information is something clients need and want--having it together in a place you can point your clients to is crucial in my opinion.

Cynthia:  Before and after school child care is important for dual military families.  People moving to the Camp LeJeune  area should find this very informative and help them plan for their relocation. Buyers in the Onslow County area might even use this information in determing where they will purchase.

Mysery solved! I always wondered why people from your area come here and add an "S" to the name of the local city "Queen Creek". I see they must be thinking of the school.

Hello Michele,
It sure is important for dual military families and I hope that the information is helpful to them.  Thanks.

Chuck,
There is the creek -- Queen's Creek, the school Queen's Creek Elementary School, the road - Queen's Creek Road, the subdivision- Kingsbridge on Queen's Creek...so it could be any of the above.  :-)
