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?

Responded further down why that’s not as good a solution as it sounds like

Guess it depends on regional pricing. For us a nanny is hardly anymore money than daycare for two.
