Oakland daycares that accept 1-year-olds?

Hi all! We'll be needing care for our son starting in March 2023 when he'll be a little over a year old and have a strong preference for a daycare center. Does anyone have recommendations for programs in Oakland that accept 1-year-olds? Or even 18-month-olds if we were to find a 6-month stop-gap option?

We know of Blue Skies but it doesn't look like they'll have availability around the time we're looking. Aside from that, we've had a hard time finding programs that accept kids that age. Would love advice / tops!

Our daughter went to Academia de mi Abuela (Spanish Immersion school) at 18 mo. I’m pretty sure they accept little ones at 12 mo. She had a wonderful time there, the school does a great job communicating and all the Maestras are very nice. 

Rockridge Montessori accepts 12 month olds. 

Grand Lake Montessori is 18 months.
