Childcare is insane in London. I do, however, take some comfort from knowing that (in my case at least) it's the most expensive part of my 18-month-old son's education. At £15,000 a year his nursery school costs £5,000 more a year than a university degree from Cambridge.
- vidarh 13y agoIt's one of the thing that is ludicrously depressing about living in London. I'm Norwegian, and my brother has two children in Norwegian nurseries. Even with the current atrocious exchange rate, he pays about GBP 6k/year combined for the two of them... If it hadn't been for work situation (especially that his mom is a UK solicitor with a big firm and wouldn't stand much chance of getting a decent job in Norway), it'd have paid off massively to move "back home" for a few years.
