Is This After-school Care Typical In Price?
I have two boys and eldest will be entering kindergarten next year. The school has an after-school program which seems to be a glorified study hall but costs on the order of $360 a week. For an entier year of after school care that's about $14,000 or about half my salary. Once both kids are in school, this will double making it impossible for me to make rent. I am wondering, is this price above average? How much do you pay for after school care?

Yes, this price is very high but unfortunately these school or ,high priced day cares, can charge whatever fee they would like. I would recommend running an ad in your local newspaper for an after school nanny. You can usually find someone to help out for a couple of hours after school for about $100.00 per week for both children. Just make sure you do a background check and you might want to invest around $100.00 and get a nanny cam installed in your home.
