Kitchener, Waterloo rate increasing?

Hi Tinyones 1981!
I just put up the same thread but no replies. I currently charge $40 per day and will increase. I am not sure what kind of increase to do. There are many providers charging $45 and some even charging $50. There is one who charges $50 but she serves organic food and caters to gluten free/dairy free/egg free.

I am in the K-W area, and right now i have not increased my rates for under two, i will likely wait until the new year. currently i only have one under two, but next year when i have two going off to JK, my rate will likely go up for those under two spots. If all stays as is, the 1yr old child i have will be two, and I will be able to take two on at the higher rate without having to increase anyones current rate
all that said, this business can be so unpredictable and I might rise them sooner. The current rate around me is $40

I was thinking the new year as well. What would you increase it to?
