[quote=Anonymous]I live right outside DC and am a single mom of an almost 2 year old (donor conceived). I make 124K My condo fees and housing costs (with utilities) are 2200 and daycare is also 2200. I am doing fine, could do it for less, but am not currently saving beyond like 7% in my retirement accounts or going on many vacations. I use my PTO to give myself a break, run errands, 1-2 night trips with my child. Thing should be better when daycare drops significantly (by $450/month) when my child is 2. Plenty of people do it for less but it is hard in such an expensive area. If you are in DC, you might also go PK3 and PK4 which means less childcare costs sooner. [/quote]
