Daycare costs in Seattle are absolutely insane

Anyone in the PNW? We got a quote from a center near Ballard - $2,850/month for our 18mo old. TWO THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS. My wife makes good money but like... this is basically her entire salary going to someone else watching our kid. Meanwhile we're both working 50+ hour weeks.

Looking at nanny shares but everything is backordered until 2025. How are families doing this??
