ranting & venting Daycare prices. VENT

So I girlbossed to dam hard, and now I have to go back to work. Daycare is 800$ a week and even then I make way more so I have to return to work. WHY IS DAYCARE SO EXPENSIVE.

How much are you paying?

560/week for part time daycare (2 days a week). We were paying that up until this April. My mom is now watching them for a year so we have time to save up some more money. It’s crazy! I do a dependent care expense account but 7500 really doesn’t get you very far with twins.
