I mean 325 a week if they’re babies or toddlers makes sense in todays economy. I was paying nearly 200/wk like 20 years ago
Yeah that sounds right! It’s bloody expensive. OP I’m curious what country you live in?
You get what you pay for, what they spend on CC is pretty typical, especially if you want a reputable facility, which you’d want for many reasons. Child care costs in the US are criminal 🫣.
Yup
I don’t understand what happened. I don’t remember exactly what I paid for Montessori School in 2002 when my daughter went, and granted it wasn’t all day, but I remember it being about $200 a month. That’s apparently the equivalent of about $342 a month now. Even if I double it to have her go all day that’s less than $700 a month. What the hell? How do people do this?
Tell me you don’t have kids without telling me you don’t have kids 🤭
And he wants her to push out more.
That’s low in my area, and they are in a similar socioeconomic area as me. Kids are expensive!
Omg 😳😫
I pad $180/week (2004-2008) - so that’s like $800/month
So add almost 2 decade worth of inflation and $1300/month sound about right!!
Makes sense. I taught pre-k around 13 years ago and it was $45 per day per kid then. Sometimes less for multiple kids but for the most part if you have 3 kids you’re better off staying home
