Ok.....so I decided to browse through home daycares in my area to make sure I'm still within a good range for the amount I charge and I come across two things that bugged me.
#1: I came across a home daycare that gives a "discount" for the first month of care.
Sooooooo stupid IMO!!!!!!!!!!!!! As a parent I would think this was so weird.....like there must be a reason.....lack of quality????
#2: The average cost of childcare in the area (home daycare) is $40/day - non-ECE & $45/day ECE.
I came across an add for
$31.75 1mth-4yrs
$22 5yrs-6yrs
$12 7yrs-10yrs
WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!
How can anybody possibly afford to have such low rates?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? !?! Especially in my are!!!! I can't compete with that!!!!! AND as a parent I think that would be the biggest red flag in the world!!!!! Possibly millions of red fireworks exploding as well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!
Ok....after reading my post I realized I am totally over reacting.....lol But still.....
