I charge 35/day ft 40/4 days 45/3 and 50/day for 1-2 days for ages 2+
125-175 is pretty standard for my area for licensed homes for all ages, but as I make the transition to 100% organic, I will be raising rates. There is a 100% organic, all cloth, all natural toys, etc, licensed home 20 minutes from me that charges $350/week no matter how many days you need.
Unlicensed I have seen advertising recently for $75/week ft any shift, up to licensed rates (which is NOT a problem if they are legally unlicensed)
Centers are $250+ now since there is some major competition going on at the moment.
My school's Child Development Center (used to accept 6 weeks to 5 years, but now only preschool for 3-5 year olds) charges up to $1,000/month per child for 5 days a week. It may be less if the parents are full time students or if they qualify for child care assistance.
I'm about 30 minutes from Boston and my fee is $200 per week, inclusive. My fee is average in this area for home care. Rates closer to Boston are much higher.
