Monthly daycare expenses
Hello!
I’m wondering if anyone would like to give a range of their monthly daycare expenses? I’m mostly looking for the cost of food as well as supplies.
I’m in the process of opening my own daycare and I’m looking to give my partner a more realistic idea of what my expenses will be like.
Thank you!

It depend on different factors:
- how many kids are in your care (your not always going to be full).
- how any crafts you do, and the kinds of crafts
- will you hire some one to come in and do a music program
- how you claim your food (buy seperate from family, or claim a % of what you bought, claim a $ amount per scheduled day/child/meal
- what % of your utitilies you will claim, tv, phone etc.
- what % of your morage/rent and insurance you will claim.
- if you need supplies/equipment that month
- if you are paying for advertising that month
- etc.
there are so many different factors. I don't break it down per month, I do per year as that is what is needed for taxes.
