Buenos Aires - Post Report Question and Answers

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, they're all over the place. We found several Montessori or Montessori-ish. They are open hours that will be possible with your Embassy working schedule. We paid roughly $150 per month for a half day at the Montessori-style school near our house and then an extra hourly fee if we were coming late from work. - Jul 2020


There are TONS of preschools available. Not very expensive. Most schools offer pre-turno or post-turno (before and after school care). - Jul 2019


Most people have nannies, the cost is less then the U.S. but more then other Latin America countries from what I understand. - Jun 2015


They love children here. There are lots of options for daycare/preschools covering all price ranges. Of course if you want English-speaking teachers and administration, it's going to cost more. All schools have uniforms, which is an additional cost. - Aug 2014


You can find everything. - Aug 2011


Not sure, many families have nannies, so I haven't heard about the daycares. - May 2011
