I am not in that market, but this seems implausible. My neighborhood is pretty prosperous, but I doubt that $400k/year is the standard. Yet kids do go off to daycare.

They might be spending more than the recommended 7% of their income on childcare. That's where the 400k number came from.

400K gross before taxes is qty2. of $200k/yr which is IC4 or so, right? Seems plausible enough.

Median family income in the US is a little over 100k. 400k to afford childcare is a ridiculous lie/error.
