I would argue that the root problem here is: why isn't one parent able to stay home with the children? We shouldn't need nearly as many daycares as we currently do. It's simply a consequence of bad economic and social planning.

Come on. This is just inefficient paternalism.

We want kids to be able to have other kids to play with and professionals to look after them.

People could elect to do that. Overwhelmingly, they do not in the US, I think from a mix of many people find raising young kids tedious and that you would be out-bid for housing, goods, and services that you want by all the two-income families.

I love my kids dearly, but I'm not cut out to stay at home raising them full-time from age 0.25 through 5.
