Infant care

I was quite late in applying for IFC for my child. I did it few weeks after birth. Applied through ECDA no respond and waiting time was long. Instead I applied through individual schools direct website. Gotten a slot a week or two. But had to await for atleast 6 months later due to the availability that was limited. I was okay with it. So I will say depends on luck. I know some would apply 3 to 6 months later. Idk but it is just the waiting game for some. And there are people that would call every few weeks esp if they are on waitlist.
