What is the going rate for childcare these days? Also are you using care full time or part time and is anyone receiving discounts for siblings? I have not raised my rates in years and I am not looking to but I was wondering if I am close to the mark. Thanks for all the info.

What can I do next?

My daughter (school-age) goes to day care 2 days one week and 3 days the next. For the 2-day week it's 70 and the 3-day week is 100. These are the summer rates. I'm not sure what the rates will be when she starts school in a few weeks. Last year, we paid $62 for a full week of after-school care through the YMCA at the school.

I pay $160 for first child, $140 for second child for full-time in-home daycare that is licensed and registered with the state. The price does not change when the kids get past baby stage.
