Are preschools available? Day care? Are these expensive? What has been your experience with them, if any? Do the schools provide before- and/or after-school care?

Yes, all are available and relatively inexpensive. Our youngest attended a Montessori school for two years. - Aug 2023


Yes, all available. You pay more than you should for what you get. - Oct 2019


As mentioned above, there are several preschools here, but only a few are used by the US Embassy. When we arrived, the Evergreen school was not yet open, but if it had been, I definitely would have sent my children there. There are no daycares, but you can hire a nanny for less than US$250 per month. - Mar 2015


Definitely available and something to fit your needs/desires. Nannies are also widely used. - Feb 2011


Plenty of preschools around, although they sometimes fill up, so try to get a spot early. You can hire nannies as well. - May 2010


We love our daughter's preschool! There are two Montessori schools and a third good preschool as well. They start at 18 months and go through age 6. - Mar 2008
