We live in South Texas and I pay $110 a wk for 7:30am-5:30pm and she provides bkfst, snack, lunch, snack-

I think after the baby is 18mths the rate goes down-

We provide diapers and wipes

In home here averages about 30-40/day as opposed to regular day care which runs 40-55/day. Fortunately I found a friend to watch my LO for 25/day and I obviously provide the breastmilk and I bring diapers and wipes.

The cheapest around here is $1000 per month. They provide snacks and do not provide diapers. We went with a center which is $1200/month.

We pay $6.50 an hour. Nothing is provided for infants but when they're eating table food their lunch is included.

I'm paying $300/month for 8:30am - 5:30pm on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays. I bring BM and formula and diapers. She just takes care of him.

I'm paying for part time day care, which is 5 hours or less a day. It's $75/wk which is the very cheapest that I've ever come across. This is an in-home child care provider. We adore her. Thank God.

We have to provide any baby food, diapers, wipes, formula/breast milk, change of colors, burp cloths, etc. But once DS is on table food, she provides lunch and snacks.

Full time, anything above 5 hours is $125/wk.

I live in NH and in home daycare is $225/week with no diapers, 5 days (not sure of hours), and snacks. On the other hand, day care centers run about $200-250/week, 5 days, with diapers and wipes at some places.

I'm in northern VA (about 30 minutes outside of DC)

We paid $240/week for just DD. Now that DS is there too, we're paying $445/week. All meals are provided (breakfast, lunch and 2 snacks). Baby food is provided but formula is not. Diapers and wipes aren't provided. Her hours are 7:30-5:30.

skiwic8 · October 2010

When I was looking the cheapest I found was $30 per day and most expensive was $50 per day. They didn't provide any supplies or food.

It's 38 dollars per day and that includes everything but diapers/formula. They provide wipes.

I live in KY and we pay $90/week (which is $18 a day, and $360 a month) - and nothing is provided at any age.

For the first 5 weeks I had her in a day care center, which was $185/week and they did provide formula. Needless to say I was THRILLED about $90/week! I feel very lucky and blessed we found her!

Haven1 · October 2010

I pay $235/week for our twins at an in-home. She would provide regular formula, but mine are still on Neosure/BM. We bring diapers and she has wipes.

MrsHunter2Be · October 2010

We pay $26/day. Drop off around 7 and pick up around 4. We provide diapers. The parents who have kids in diapers rotate wipes. We just buy a big bag of the Huggies wipes whenever it is our turn. We also bring formula for him. We will be expected to bring baby food whenever he starts on that. But for older kids she provides breakfast, lunch and snacks.

I live 10 minutes outside of Philadelphia. We pay $25 a day for in home daycare. We provide food, wipes, and formula. I believe when she gets older, you still provide food, she provides snacks. I'm fine with bringing my own food.

Centers run around $200-225 a week from what I saw. So this option was much cheaper, and she gets lots of love and attention.

JessDawn19 · October 2010

I live in AR and I pay $55/week for Sophia. I provide diapers & BM, and take turns with the other baby's mom providing the wipes. There are 4-5 children there, depending on the day. Meals are provided once the child is old enough and her hours are 7:00-5:00. Most daycares around here charge $125-175/week.

amberfernandez · October 2010

I live in CA and we pay $200/week, and we supply formula, diapers, and wipes. We also provide all baby food until she can eat table food at 1-year. She is in care 10-hours per day, the max allowed by the County, from 7:15am - 5:15pm.
