You're just massaging the data to benefit your point. Go find a babysitter that'll find 5 parents an go "yes, I'll watch all 5 of your children if you all chip in and give me 12.75 total".
- j_walter 6y agoI'd be happy to pass you on to anyone that works at a daycare. They don't make much more than minimum wage in many cases. That's how daycare can remain somewhat affordable...economies of scale. Even your own source of care.com has a "Nanny Share" program that reduces the cost more. Without sharing, full time care (40 hrs a week) for 2 kids in my area is $16 an hour...which is less than 2 bucks more than minimum wage. $17.65 an hour if its 3 kids. Certainly not three times the $14.65 an hour that is for a single kid.
