I'm fine for at least a year with the client base I have and , thank goodness, don't have to cut anyone. That being said, in a year or 2, I will have to raise my rates for all new, incoming clients. In my area (Newmarket), the going rate has just moved up to between $41 and $45. I'm $45 and will likely bump up to $55. That will cover the extra space left over when I can't take on my 3rd little one and compensate during the inevitable lean times.
