[quote=Anonymous]Location is critical for this exercise. $3000 a month for an in home daycare is a lot. That’s nearly $700 a week! We live in the FFX County, and you can get the same service at a daycare center for closer to $525, and this includes some sort of accredited learning program. In home daycares are far less, as they’re not paying corporate licensing fees, and might have gaps in service to support the owner’s time off/sick leave. $300-400 a week would sound more reasonable. If you’re closer in, I could see the rates increasing, but not by that much. Also, providing diapers and wipes isn’t a great selling feature. How many children will you care for? A lot of parents have preferences for diapers, or their child might have sensitivities to certain brands, and everyone will be in different sizes. It seems like a massive headache that might cost the parents $10 a week to do on their own. [/quote]
