Found a list of daycare prices! $300 a week

Anonymous
This list is amazing. The average is $300 a week in VA.

And why doesn't anyone talk about La Petite Academy? All I hear is 'Bright Horizons, Bright Horizons'. They have 28 sites in this area.

I don't understand how the price hasn't changed for center-based care. When I worked at a daycare center almost 20 years ago, my center charged $300/week for infant care.

This is old. Crème de la crème in sterling is called Karter now.

And those prices are all at least $100 more a week now. I toured a lot of those places but don’t see my current school on there.

I have a feeling this list was before loudoun had full day kindergarten. These prices are super cheap and not realistic at all.

This is old. My infant is $610/week at KinderCare

This list is from 2013. Mine is listed at $300 and I pay $500 a week currently.

The list needs to be updated then because it says 2022.

Outdated list. These look more like the rates I saw when searching for a daycare for my oldest DD in 2015.
We are in Ashburn and paying nearly $100 more per week now than the prices reflected in that list.

My oldest will turn 20 next week and we paid these rates then. Super outdated

I’ve always wondered why one spouse works just to pay for daycare.

This isn't always the case, but way to generalize.

Retirement contributions + the opportunity cost of leaving a career
