Personally I don't agree that babies need to interact with other children till they are about 2. As long as they ahve aloving & attentive mum & dad at home they are getting all teh stimulation they need. A good day care centre will tell you this also. At 7 months his world is all about him & you. he wouldn't care less if he has other kids to play with or not. I think Fire Fly's suggestion of kindy gym or playgroup would be a better alternative to day care. Babies need there parents not interaction with other kids KWIM.
Hope I don't offend anyone.
ETA: Just realised your DS isn't 7 months so I will slighty change my post. While I still agree that they need parents & not other kids at this age. I can see why you think he needs the interaction with others. He would enjoy it but doesn't need it KWIM?
I think Play group & or kindygym is a better alternative like I said. I think its better to start Preschool type things where they are being left after they are 3yrs. That way you can slowly build up how often they go to get use to big school once they are 5.
