Daycare costs Lake Mary/Sanford

Just wondering what the average cost for daycare is around these areas.  Not sure if I'm looking for part time or full time yet.  TIA

 

ETA: Oops, Might want to add this would be for an infant!

The cost range from $125-$150.  The younger the child the more money because they need more attention and caring for.  If your low on cash, my friend found it easy to go through Florida's 4-C program which covers all or a % depending how much you make.  I hope this helps.

When my son was an infant we paid $185 a week for full time. THat was at a day care in Apopka. I think places like Star Child are as high as $200 a week for infants. My son is now 21 months and he just started at a day care in Clermont. We pay $155 for full time. I think their infant program is $165 wkly. Not all day cares offer a part time price either and I've found that even if they do it's not real flexable. It's crazy how much it can cost!  Good luck and best wishes!

In our area of Lake Mary you're looking at $180-$210 per week.  Kids Together, LadyBird Academy and Legacy Academy.  It's used to be full time only but I know with the economy some are offering to take part time to fill classes.

And I would hurry up and pick one.  When my DSD enrolled at Kids Together her mom signed up when she was only 2 months pregnant.  There was already a waiting list!  She actually got bumped and was unable to enroll at the daycare until she was almost 6 months old.  (I don't think it's that bad now with StarChild open and many people taking their kids out to save money in this tough economy).
