I've been calling places off and on since December. This is the average around here for centers and in-home.

I believe you. I just had a heart attack at the price for infant baby for a week. It's abit too much, but again, everyone have to make a living one way or another.

Yes and you really should thank your lucky stars you have a great daycare sitution worked out. Because unless you make BANK, three kids under five can run 400-650 per week.

Before Juliet turned 2 I was being quoted $500-600. Now that she's not an infant and Jacob is in school 1/2 day I would be looking at about $400-425.

You must make bank at BOTH jobs!

 

[sockgirl77]

Why not get a Nanny that can go to your house? It's cheaper than daycare.

If I had the space that would be the route I'd go.

Hi Socki!

Oh, you don't have to get live in Nanny. You can get the one that go to your house everyday. Arrive at 7 am to take care of the kids and leave at 5 pm to go home when you get home.

I payed 160 for my two for years, and I thought that was exspensive. When you consider, rent, utilities, food, gas, clothes and car insurance etc.

I have not had to pay daycare for the last two years thank goodness. I was able to give up job two beacuse of it and we are all much happier for it.

Job #2 is my sanity. I actually love doing it. It's a night out and I get paid for it. I've met some very interesting people.
