How much daycare allowance do parents get per child?

[Wonderwiper]

I think she was asking about the child care benefit that EVERY parent of children under 18 receives from the government.

It is not a direct supplement to whatever you pay for daycare. Families use it however they want. It is taxable so in no way would equal $160 off of your monthly daycare fees.

For us, after taxes, it works out to be a "supplement" $7 a month.

If the OP was talking about subsidies or something else than maybe that is different.
