[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP Here, thanks for the input. I can see one of my DS' being interested in karate but not the other! The $900 figure is based off of the KAH website and i do have two DS so it's not looking very affordable! We just started in this school system/MoCo & had no idea how expensive the after care is around here. I've yet to hear anything about Colesville Child Center so thanks for that lead.

Any other ideas? Previously a SAHM but it's MORE than time to get myself back out there...at what cost though? Jeez.[/quote]

OP, things to consider when you look at costs are what's included.  There are tons of half days off, full days off and school breaks.  Colesville Center covers all of that, including early dismissals due to problems where the school unexpectedly dismisses early, in their price - or at least they did up to last year, which is when I stopped using them.  I was paying $120 per week for first child and $108 per week for the second, which cost me a total of $9,576 for the 42 week school year for my kids.  (When the third was in, I paid $108 per week per kid).  They also offer discounts for prepayment.  They have the longest hours in the area - 7:00 am to 6:30 pm.  And, their summer camp is not pricey compared to what else is offered in that area.

I will tell you that my summer camp budget is almost as big as my school year budget, but with two kids in that area, you can probably do it for around $4,500 at Colesville, but that just wasn't ever my favorite camp.  [/quote]
