Answer 3

Most range from 5-10$ a day depending on how old.

Answer 4

Depends in part on the age of the child.  I live in PA and worked in a school affiliated program and we charged $3.00 an hour.

If you are having difficulty paying for day care, look into subsidized day care.  Day care is often subsidized for lower income parents.  Call your social service agencies to see if this is a possibility for you.  And if your child is between 3 and 5, don't over-look Head Start.  They often have excellent programs.  They do use income guidelines but often accept over-income families for a variety of reasons.

Answer 5

I live in Michigan, and the average is $5 an hour, but if you are talking about a day care center, they usually charge by the day or half day
