A new report from the care index found the average American Family spends about 95hundd in daycare. That cost is cheaper in iowa at nearly 82hundred dollars. But comparatively , thats nearly as high as the university of iowas tuition. Kcrgtv9sdubuque bureau chief Katie Wiedemann shows us those costs have families looking for some kind of financial relief. After a long work day, Colleen Dolehide picks up her two kids from daycare. Packs them in her car, drives across town. She gets them back out of the car. He treats my kids like theyre his own. Then shes off to her night shift job. Income from her second job helps pay child care bills. Its definitely heart breaking. When somebody will send you a picture and says this is what they are doing.

While census data shows average rates have risen 70 percent since 1985, that has followed the cost of inflation. Directors say just because parents are paying a lot, doesnt mean the staff is bringing home a big paycheck. Childcare staff are possibly the most underpaid staff in the workforce. Besides covering staffs wages, Childcare Centers use child tuition for oper supplies, curriculum and continuing education for teachers. If you work for childcare, youre in it because you love children. Youre not in it because youre making lots of money.
