Yea, as an Finn this feels so crazy to me. I pay for my childs daycare 270$ dollar per month and it feels so much😂
How much do they earn in the US if they have money to pay this much, it is about same as my whole month salary as an nurse.
Most people can’t afford this and a lot of people have one parent stay home instead of doing daycare. Others have family members watch the kids. I also live in an area where a lot of places still pay the federal minimum wage of $7.50/hour (although many have had to move into the $9-$12/hour range to attract any employees) and daycare runs about $3.50 an hour on average. A huge percentage of the population in my area qualifies for the state to pay 100% of their daycare costs, especially single parents, since wages are so low. The rest have one parent stay home, use family as sitters, or some even hire a private nanny for less than sending their kids to daycare costs.
