How much is the daycare/babysitting rate for 8 hrs a day for 5 days out of the wk? 

im not too sure of the going rate. when my daughter went to daycare, i had state pay. almost anyone can have the state pay at least part of the cost. i only paid 33 a month, and i know someone on the program who pays 200 a month. it just depends on your income. (33 was with me working at walmart, the 200 family has 2 active duty parents) 

Here it all depends on the pay/income of both parents but average is prob. between 75 and up per week. Not really sure though. But yes state pay is awesome, just takes a little time, but too much though, and well worth it!! 

sorry meant to say not too much time.... ooops..LOL 

I personally charge from $75-$100 a week depending on hours, and the age/needs of the child. If you bring me a child at 4 am, and it's a 6 month old, it will be closer to $100. 

I'm another Jennifer than the first 2 comments, lol.... I'm Jennifer B. 

i dont see how two military people only pay 200 a month when my husband was a A1c we didnt even qualify with just his pay, they had to of been lying some how I pay my babysitter 440 a month for 40hrs a week 

I think it is retarded here to pay so much for childcare, I know having 2 kids and being military, that if I wanted to put my babys in daycare or school I would pay about 200 a week and that is crap. That is why I dont work, I want to but it makes no sense for me to work to pay for childcare. GRRRR lol sorry if I sound angry.
