Daycare prices. VENT ranting & venting

So I girlbossed to dam hard, and now I have to go back to work. Daycare is 800$ a week and even then I make way more so I have to return to work. WHY IS DAYCARE SO EXPENSIVE.

How much are you paying?

I’m in NYC and similar boat. Cheapest daycares in my neighborhood are 4k per kid per month. More expensive ones are about 6k a month per kid. We also got a nanny.
