When my now kindergartener first started daycare in 2018, we were told about how the costs lowered as they moved through the classroom because the kid to adult ratio was higher as they got older. Well with inflation creep and general 2020 nonsense, by the time he got to pre-k it still cost about the same as the infant room had when he was in there. Now our second is at the same center and infant care is about $100 more per week than we paid for the first.
