How much do you pay for daycare?

The average weekly cost for my 5-month-old is shocking.

$2700 per month for five days a week in the HCOL area. RIP, my bank account.

$3000, and it will go beyond $5000 if we have another child. Kill me, please.

Je. Sus. Christ. Do they nap on thousand-thread-count sheets?

Ours is also $3000, and we must provide our own linens and burp cloths :sob:. It’s more than just the mortgage.

As someone not from the US: that’s almost our monthly net income for our HOUSEHOLD :rofl:. These numbers make me DIZZY. insane!

Wow, that’s a lot! I currently pay $5,000 for a nanny for one child. Thinking about taking childcare once she begins talking. Full-time employment will result in a monthly salary of only $1400.

$2800 for us as well. It’s quite a hit! We’re hoping for a second one, but we’re not sure if we can manage it financially.

2200/month for 3 days a week in HCOL.:sob:

I currently pay $4,000 per month for a full-time nanny and am not permitted to complain about the work they do.

3100 for three years and one year. This is ridiculous :woozy_face:
