<description>&#60;p&#62;It will be $184/week for an infant when LO gets here. I'm in the suburbs but closer to the country than the city. I have a friend who has LO's is going to a daycare a couple miles away for $170 per kid.. but they can only be there 7 hours a day. I rather have the flexibility of going beyond 7 hours then having the extra $14 a week!

<description>&#60;p&#62;We pay $2.25/hr and only for the hours that our son is there, which ends up being 45 hours a week. It used to be $2.75/hr until he turned 2 years old. We have paid on average between $100-$130 per week. Now that the price has gone down it should stay around the $100 per week mark!

<description>&#60;p&#62;We pay $1300/mo for our half of a nanny share (plus a little extra for our share of the monthly taxes + our tax preparation). It's cheaper than the &#34;good&#34; centers we checked out so we're happy with the cost, comparatively anyway!

<description>&#60;p&#62;Reading this makes me depressed at how much we pay for our daycare, though we love it.  We also live in a very expensive area.  We do get a 10% sibling discount off the most expensive tuition.  Still, we're paying $4250 a month!&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;LO2 - infant room, $2350/month - includes diapers&#60;br /&#62;
LO1 - 2 to 3 year old room, $2150/month - includes diapers but she's potty-trained.  She'll move to 3 to 5 year old room this fall at some point, so that'll be $1650, I think.

<description>&#60;p&#62;Man, I am glad we live where we do with young children. We pay slightly less than €600/month for 2 LOs in full time care, although the younger LO currently goes reduced hours but will go full time in the fall at the same price. The city subsidizes half of childcare costs (they pay the daycare, not me), so I know where my tax money is going.
