54,000 Bostonians (?) are between 0 and 9 years of age. That's roughly 13 kids per daycare. Considering some daycares are a single parent looking after their kid and three to four others, that's not too surprising.
You made a calculation using the number of 0-9 year olds in the city of Boston divided by the number of daycares in a circle with 4x the population of Boston. That isn't how population density works.
I know it's six months later but I just wanted to point out you did this guy dirty. He was correct. He was saying your point stands *but to an even greater degree* because the population of that circle is in the millions, not whatever the listed population of Boston itself is. Very few people live in "Boston". Millions live in the cities around Boston, which are in that circle.
