Jane Chin says Aug 10, 2008 04:34AM i'm amazed at how much childcare costs (looking at data from national childcare assoc) >$10K/yr in CA for infants/toddlers?!
codyrobert says Aug 10, 2008 04:58AM it is very expensive, although unfortunately, not enough of that goes to the actual people taking care of your child
Jane Chin Aug 10, 2008 01:48PM i don't mind public schools, but again depends on where the school's located
Glyphrunner says Aug 10, 2008 02:43PM we've been on only my income for the last 3 years to avoid the daycare costs. Her wages were disappearing 100% into daycare. Min wage sucks.
codyrobert says Aug 12, 2008 04:54AM i did, although i worked with 6-12 year olds. i couldn't imagine infants/toddlers!
Jane Chin Aug 12, 2008 09:34AM codyrobert yes, that's why infants cost even more than older children; require almost constant care esp. if they're mobile.
Jane Chin Aug 12, 2008 09:44AM yea, it's 2:44am here. woke up bc bb crying and then couldn't go back to sleep :|
