Wow, the cost of childcare....

So, since I started a new job we have decided to look into daycare for a few days a week so that we don't have to work opposite schedules... we will already be doing that on the weekends as it is. I want to see my family so that just won't work. 

I can see, after making a few phone calls etc, that if you have more than 1 child it can be cost prohibitive to have your children in daycare--that is unless you make a lot of money.. doing the math, if we have the kids in daycare 2 days I would have to work 3 days each week to break even, then we might still have to pay someone to watch the kids on the weekend.. if i worked full time and had the kids in daycare 3 days a week, I would only bring home just over $300 total.. doesn't hardly seem right you know... all that work, missing the kids, and very little  money to show for it...


still looking into other options.....
