 Daycare Cost 
What is the average cost?  Most of the daycares I'm calling for a baby is between $300 and $400.  Is that about right?
  TIA
  Pregnant and looking for daycares in Sept for my little girl OR boy.

 Re: Daycare Cost 
DDs daycare will be $1,200 (she's starting in Sept. at 13 months old)...They don't let do part time for that age because the crib they use is for one child only...so it's $300/wk...

 Re: Daycare Cost 
I pay between $300-400 a week for an infant.  I looked at quite a few places and that seems to be average.
