kellyjamie Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Hi all, we were looking at costs of childcare and checked whizzkids and they quote $52 for a full day, is this about average? many thanks Kelly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lsbc1976 Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 I had looked yesterday and it was $63 dollars a day at the place i was interested in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quoll Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Around here that would be on the low side. A couple of years ago when I checked it was $60 - $65 a day and I cant think that prices would have gone down since then especially with the demise of ABC Learning last year.

calNgary Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Yep that sounds about right, anything from $50 upwards for a day seems 'normal'. Cal x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theonetruechris Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 I'm paying $67 / day so seems cheap to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MSTO Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Sounds cheap to me. I pay about $70 a day but that is before child care benefit and I do get 50% child care rebate back every 3 months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their website still appears to be active.... I'm glad I know they're not around anymore, because I was using their website to gauge childcare costs!

Thanks Some of them were taken over by various agencies, others closed and I think I heard that a consortium was buying up some just the other day.

calNgary Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Quite a lot of the ABC centers are still operating as normal in and around Brisbane. They seemed to sell off the quieter centers and the ones in close proximity of each other, hence their website will be active. Cal x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eera Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 My family daycare is $6 p/h, so $56 a day, that's a cheap rate if it's a centre as they tend to be more exxy than family daycare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
