In Kansas it’s Bout $30-$40 per day (20 days - doesn’t include weekends)
I paid 125 a week for a 5 day Monday thru Friday no weekends for my daughter from the time she was 16 months till she was 7… I couldn’t imagine affording 20 dollars per hour but I guess it depends on the situation! Like if it were for a date night or something then 20 per hour is decent but for full time daycare I think between 25 and 45 a day is good… most people who provide in home daycare have other children as well so depressing how many children…
Pick a solid amount. Hourly adds up. $50 for up to 8 hours a day is standard where i live for up to 2 kids. Or $100 per 5 day week. Weekends excluded.
Yep in my court agreement he is to pay half of the daycare. That’s not to say he always held up his end of the bargain…
I’d pay them at least what you pay a daycare weekly.
Minimum wage has nothing to do with child care, where I live the going rate is $10 per child per hour
Most childcare places in my area charge around $35 a day now of course there are more expensive and cheaper places but the average seems to be $35 so we pay our sitter $35 a day and we supply everything.
When my kids where in daycare, we paid $625 per child on a monthly basis… regardless on if they went or not. Once they raised the rates we had to pull the kids out and bow I stay home.
Our min is 11.15 I pay a lot to a state daycare.without assistance… before and after care fir oldest 8 is 48 a week with help and my daughter is 84 at age three with help. Daycare is 250ba week here at a an eh daycare for here and 129 a. Week for him without help! They provide basic meals but at most meals accou t to maybe 15 a day each??? So you can maybe subtract thirty a day from care if you pr9vidr all food and non water drink needed.
And yes i pay if they go or not , including holidays there cloelsed and snow days.
Depends on what the norm is for where you live. The norm where I live is 25-30/day.
You and her /him can call local daycare get rates discuss expectations and if there allowed other kids (because that determines if it’s enough to pay bills or worthit on both ur ends) that’s my suggestion. If ur both happy it’ll last long term which is good for kids.
Per day may make more sense and be easier. Like for an 8hr day for 3 kids I’d say like 60. Or if it’s going to be a continuous thing pay weekly like 300. If it’s in your own home you could take out food costs and bring it down to like 200-250
Yes ask courts to make him pay for it all or half and price idk never needed to pay for a baby sitter
I pay my sitter $60/day or $30 for days 4 hours or less.
We have 3 kids ages 1, 3 and 10.
Daycares daily rate around here used to be $25/day per child with a discount for more children. Now no daycares do daily rates and you must pay full time even when they don’t go. Since we only need a sitter 8-12 days a month, it’s easier for us to pay what we’re paying.
Also, I’m at the house the whole time the sitter is here. I work night shift so I just need someone to watch them long enough for me to get some sleep. This also helps with my babysitter and makes her hours a little more flexible. If she needs to leave early or something happens, all she has to do is wake me up or let me know when to wake up to work around her needs.
We also give extra money for when she wants to treat them to lunch or wants to do an activity with them.
We’re grateful to have my sister as our sitter. She also lives next door so she doesn’t have to waste gas.
Daycare is a lot different then a babysitter unless your are hiring someone certified in childcare.
I pay 10 an hour per kid. But min wage here is 7.50 soo
I used to watch kids , one who went to school and the other two were home. I got paid 200 a week for max 4 days . Which is 50 a day.
It’s been a long time since I had kids in daycare my youngest is 22 now but back then I paid $250/week ($50/day). Minimum wage here is $12.50/hr now. I would expect to pay more than the rate I paid back in the 90’s and 2000’s and provide diapers and food for my child if I were putting them in daycare now.
