I am feeling it too! Fees seem to be an issue here. I noticed some providers dropped their prices a bit but it seems to be a dry spell like everyone is saying. I lost one family that was interested in me because they are with a centre and although their fee is currently higher it will drop as the child gets older whereas mine stays the same. I am just starting and it is hard not to get frustrated. I've reached out to a few local providers with no luck. I wish we could all support each other rather then compete.
