I'm in Maitland. I charge $175, and I'm pretty sure I'm the most expensive home daycare in the area. I only accept infants, and only 3 at a time, unless one of my current families have another one. I opened last year and immediately found 2 parents with newborns. The boys are only 5 days apart. A few months later I advertised for the 3rd position and immediately filled that with a baby that wasn't even born yet. On the other hand, I have a friend that charges $120 a week and has had a lot of problems finding good families.
I suggest you find a niche and fill it.
