[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]$30 per hour is insane. Ask MONA. I don’t know what the going rate is for twins but much less than $30 per hour.[/quote]

What does daycare charge for two infants?  Do they discount if they’re twins?

Honest question.  [/quote]

Some daycare centers provide a 5%-10% or so sibling discount. The bigger problem is finding spaces. It's highly unlikely you will find 2 spaces at the same daycare center. Finding one spot is hard enough. Many people put the child on the waitlist at or near conception. So you're already a few months late. For quality center-based care you are looking at $25k-$30k per child for a place that includes a hot lunch and snacks.[/quote]

That's a gross overestimation.  25k-30k per child per year is 2k+ per child.  That's too much.

OP, you're in Arlington.  You should be able to find good home daycares. They are much better for infants than corporate centers, and much more affordable. [/quote]

Seems like it would be near impossible to get two infant spots at the same time at an inhome daycare.[/quote]
