It's 40% of my salary. 12% if you count DH's and mine together.
-
36% of mine only, and 18% of ours total! Gosh that's a lot.
-
20% of mine, 8% combined
-
23% pre-tax. And 23% combined bc DH is still a student. UGH.
-
When I was working, it was about 40% going to daycare, too. Thing is, after that, my take-home earnings became even smaller when we got hit with taxes to pay every April.
-
26% of my take-home salary. 12% of our combined take-home.
-
25% more or less. This is of my total income which is our entire household income...sigh...only until july!
-
@Bookish: yikes! You got me beat on the combined number.
Mine is so high because I have to pay for full time care though I only work part time.
-
17% of mine, and 7% of our combined {net} income.
-
25% of mine, 10% combined
-
37% of my gross (not including DH), but net is much higher 49%
-
12% of mine, 6% of both of our gross but it looks uglier net!
-
It is going to be 33% of my net and about 13% of ours combined.
-
IF we get into the daycare we're hoping for, it will be 22.8% of my gross and around 10% of our combined gross...I don't know what our net will be after we adjust withholdings and such, since we won't do that until LO is born. If we end up having to hire a nanny, it would probably be close to 38% of my gross salary...that would really hurt!
-
45% of my pay after taxes. 17% of our combined salaries.
-
4% of our combined take home pay.
-
22% of my gross, 6% of combined gross.
-
I decided to stay at home but the only places with openings would have been way more than half my take home!
-
Ouch. 50% of my gross income, 21% of our combined gross income. But, that's for two babies in infant care. Can't wait til we switch daycares in February!!
-
@yellowbird: you're the winner so far!!! What is your daycare arrangements?
-
12% of my gross, 6% of combined.
-
Infant and toddler: 35% of mine, 10% combined.
-
34% of my take home.
-
17% of my gross pay, 9.5 combined (base) about 6% if you count in my husbands bonus.
-
Ours is not bad.
-
nearly 25% of mine...don't even want to think about what it will be for two.
I'd still take over a 25K paycut if I were to quit my job and stay at home to save on child care though...
-
20%. Together it's about 5% of combined income.
-
Still on maternity leave but ours will be 30% of my net, 16% of our combined net, 14% if you include our rental income. That's only for three days a week though - I will work full time, but it's 12 hour shifts so we don't need full time care.
-
17% of mine, 7% of ours, after taxes/take home.
-
@jedeve: we do part time at an in home daycare. I also live in a very affordable area
-
20% of my gross, 9% of our gross. When we move to an in home daycare next month it will drop to 13% of my gross.
-
@jedeve: Ha do I win for the opposite?
-
15% of my gross salary, 8% of our combined gross salaries.
-
10% of mine, a few percent less combined. This is of take home.
-
@DillonLion: you do!
-
64% of mine alone (take home). Ugh, @DillonLion:, I beat you. Sad face.
-
@Foodnerd81: Me too!!! Went back for a bit, but for various reasons didn't stay at the job, and at that job it would have been about 50% of gross pay...
-
25% of my take home, 6% of our combined.
-
2.5% of our combined salary. Daycare is heavily subsidized here though, the state pays half of the tuition for residents.
-
It would be about 50% of my take home income for an infant if I can get a position upon my return that's even conducive to a daycare setup. 15% of our combined net income. If we had to get a nanny that can help with overnights and crazy hours... 70%??
Which is why we're seriously considering me going back part time or working at different days/times since we're both shift workers and child care is SO expensive here.
