child care post

How much a month do you pay for child care services---at a daycare, not what you pay a person.?

I know prices are different all over... I am just trying to get a rough estimate. If it helps I live in El Paso, Texas. My baby will be just a newborn when I need it. Thanks!

  1. Prices here in Missisippi are around 75 dollars to 85 a week.

  2. 115 a week or so in virginia every center is different

  3. i live in kansas, the daycare my daughter goes to charges $3.50 an hour, its run by the military so they charge by your income. when i looked around off post the daycare was $170 a week.

  4. $0 I couldn't pay someone to watch something so dear to me!

  5. Im not sure about texas but the infant rooms are always the most expensive in the center... When choosing a day care keep these suggestions in mind...

    1. contact your states children and family services office and request a copy of the rules and regulations for formal daycares and use this as a reference when touring the centers.

    2. Make sure when you are there you note what the infant/teacher ratio is and then ask the person who is touring you what the ratio is (cross check this with the rules and regs!)

    3. Ask if the infants share cribs...this is really unsanitary if they do.


  6. i live in raleigh, nc and it would cost me $202 a week if i would have put my baby in daycare
