Kendra's post on facebook.....she was posted about the exspensive fees that was quoated to her about daycare cost and the price that was quoted shocked Kendra and I was shocked also.....it was in the ball park of $500 and change for one week

So my question is .......Is that the going rate these days for child care ???

I am so happy my mom was my babysitter back in the day.

I wish somebody WOULD expect 500 a week......

My babygirl is 9 - I have her transported to and from school, then afterschool care, that's $93 a week, during the summer when she's there all day 5 days a week, it's $132 a week. 

I did pay $800 a month for preschool for her when she was 5 tho......

I don't just have issues, I have subscriptions!  I'm saving on the newsstand price.......

I so agree with you Kim....

I think it has alot to do with the state that you are residing.. Here in Dallas, the top notch day care centers for a newborn will cost you close to $300/wk. The price does decrease when the child is older to as much as $210/wk.

$210 for one kid ?

Yes for one kid. Several ladies in my office have infant/toddlers which is how I was able to get those figures.

Do realize that $210 is a higher end school.

She'd be better off getting an illegal alien as a live out nanny at that price. 

Everything in Southern CT is expensive and even we don't pay that much on average, although facilities near corporate centers are close.  This is what the YMCA where my daughter grew up charges.  Rates are higher for infants.

LOL@ illegal alien!!! 

I was gonna say for $500 a WEEK - I would lock the burglar bar and shut off the garage door opener so I know she can't leave the house, open a can of spam and a thing of crackers and tell her to  every hour so I know she aiight and she would be SOLO at the crib........
