oh, and to answer the question - i charged $250 per week and i kept 4 kids (the max i could keep being unlicensed) which was about 50-75 more dollars per week than most daycares in my area.

BUT my parents didn't care to pay it because i had a low ratio and i have a B.S. degree in early childhood which makes a difference to some people. no, i'm not knocking people that don't, but that is appealing to certain people - especially if you're only keeping 4 kids - it's not hard to get 3/4 families who value that.
