[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Infant child care is the highest in DC, averaging around $1200-1800 a month. [b]I say $200k is the needed salary with the cost of living.[/b] [/quote] LOL what? I'm not a single mom but my husband and I don't earn that much combined. OP, I'd say $80-100K is a good range if you want to be comfortable. If you're ok with tightening your belt, $60K would be sufficient. You have lots of options WRT where you live and childcare. I toured an in-home daycare that would have cost $185/week for my infant. And of course there are still plenty of areas in the DC metro area that are not exorbitantly expensive. Best wishes to you![/quote] It can work if you get an apartment.[/quote]
