    I interviewed quite a few daycares after I had my second and every time I asked whether there was a sibling discount.
    my family and friends assured me there would be such a thing once I had two kids
    Well....it was like trying to find the abominable snowman - no such thing existed. In all my interviews not a single daycare offered me a discount when I asked.
    I also do not offer a sibling discount now that I am on the other side of the fence

    I ended up giving them $2.5 off a day. $600 at the end of the year was something I could live with and still was a significant amount of money for them. I felt cheap though. So, in my email offering it to them I mentioned the other discounts I give throughout the year such as not being paid for my vacations and not charging a full day if a child is sick or on vacation. She seemed happy with that. I've just been second guessing my self. Thanks everyone.
