Ima be a new dad for the first time. She's due in 2 months. Finally picked out our daycare.
It's $330 a week where I'm at (South Carolina). This seems to be significantly cheaper from what I recall friends talk about in New Jersey when I lived up there. What is more shocking to me is the diapers (Cuties brand), wipes and Similac Advance 360 (whatever the fukk that is) is included in the price.

First off is this normal for them to include that in the price cause the other daycares we checked out we had to supply everything?
This Daycare is highly rated, super clean, local with a app available which is convenient. Videos and pix uploaded to app daily. I'm calculating that the $330 a week is a damn good deal seeing as I don't have to spend as much for diapers and formula...Anything that i might be missing or should take in cosiderstion?

Congratulations! Yeah that sounds reasonable these days. Also, all the incentives/perks for the price would make me jump on that

That sounds really good. Almost too good. I might supply some formula for my child just in case, to ensure they're not rationing or trying to be thrifty. But yeah, if everything checks out then you should jump on it.

I remember these days, check for Daycare assistance your area , where I'm from we had Episcopal child care services who payed off a Chunk of the daycare fees and left us a smaller amount to pay

Fun fact Kountry Wayne's cousin was my service worker there, made sure my daycare needs were well taken care of... Hooked me up with daycare coverage for my kids that ain't even need daycare anymore just cause it was cheap as hell, why not. We finna use these people's money

$1300/month is a C8 Corvette. :damn:




Childcare is America is fkn trash rap shyt needs to be fixed yesterday.
Take the deal before they fill up.


The question we should be asking is why it was possible 50-60 years ago for one parent to work and make enough to pay for a house, car, utilities, insurance, food, clothing, entertainment, vacations, healthcare, etc. while the other spouse didn't work and took care of the children.

Thats about what we paid in South Carolina at a nicer daycare. We had to provide the bottles and diapers though. I do not miss making them damn bottles.
