Through the summer, I am paying $50/day for my two school age kids = $250/week. That's in a private home. I priced out other centers (including the one offered by our school district) and they were all $60-70/day for two kids. I'm talking an 8 year old and a 10 year old.. no diapers, can eat by themselves, are basically good kids, etc. My co-worker with an infant and a 2 year old is paying $37/day for the toddler and $42/day for the infant = $395/week. Minimum wage in Michigan is $5.15/hr. which = $206/week. It's downright ridiculous.

That's why I'd make a charity to help underpaid moms afford their day care!
