Our preschool in the Bay Area was around $1200/month, but there were many places that were higher. Believe me when I say that the Bay Area is insanely competitive in every way. This is why we moved out.
Boulder CO minimum is ~1500 a month for 1 kid, and most places have stopped giving discounts for two kids. Where I grew up in Fayetteville Arkansas isn't too much diff. So for 2 kids that is ~2500 to $3000 a month for FT child care while both people work.
I do agree with you this is a crazy article to make this seem middle class. But I do agree on the point that our econ is broken...
