Around here its more like $1500 but I found a women who has a day care in her home and is only $30 a day for the 1 or 2 days a week my mil can't babysit its much better then full time daycare
I just don't know what we are gonna do This is so stressful, makes me second think having another child...we have childcare assistance through the state but I know I will not qualify!
@homebirthadvocate Unless they are family or a close friend, leaving my baby with a single person in my home or their home really scares me, unfortunately I don't feel its an option for me.
Ouch! My coworkworker was just telling me the other day she pays $300 a week. That's way too much. I'm so sorry friend:( I really hope you find a place that you trust and that's reasonable.
Makenzie's daycare is $300 a week ($1200 a month) I get help from the state to pay for day care though and because I work there I get a discount on that too and I was paying $66 a week. It is way to much to bring a baby to daycare. Sucks
I pay 85 a week @ a licensed daycare run from the providers home. drop off early & pick up late because i need all the hours i can get since i make minimum wage &live in ga where traffic sucks.
This is why I stay home and plan on it until she's older so not worth not being with my daughter and paying someone else to spend time with her. Plus with the job I had everything would have gone to day care.
@Mama_Kat Gotta be greatful when you have family members that can watch the kids then huh....after seeing this kinda stuff...just basic living is a tight rope these days.. :-((
Wow...that's cheaper than what it is around here. Its $1500 for just 1 kid here, and I have a toddler and a newborn. There's no way we could afford it! Even the licensed homecare places are outrageous here! The fees you have to pay doesn't even include snacks or anything..gotta pack that yourself!
I am paying about $400 a week in care for the kids and then mortgage is $650 roughly a week on top of that before any other bills are factored in. So yeah most of my pay is gone just there alone which sucks lol.
Crazy. Yup here in Hawaii daycare for infants are those prices n even higher. I'm glad I'm able to stay home because if I did work I'd be paying all my money to daycare lol...my bf is Hawaiian and they give scholarships to "native hawaiian children" where they help u pay based on ur income but they don't do that til the age of 3
My sil pays 325 a week for twins, and my cousin was going to have to pay that same amount got only one baby!.it definitely depends where you are located! If your in the "cities" it will be much more expensive!
It's ridiculous! I worked in a daycare over here in the UK. Parents pay roughly around £500 a month for my nursery which was an excellent one - we were top rated by Ofsted who are the regulators over here. But when I went back to work after having Leo, I was paying more for two days care than I was earning for working those two days in the same nursery! Luckily I'm in a place where after having Riley I have been able to become a SAHM but it really wasnt worth going back anyway!
