Hi, I am starting a daycare out of my home. I have been approved for non-registered and I need to send new rates for registered daycare and my three letters of reference. The lady on the phone about state registered said I need to change my rates but she would not really tell me what the rates should be. I live in Des Moines, IA and I want to get the right amount. She told me I was to low but I don't really know.
I am getting laid off from work anytime soon and decided It was the right time to open my daycare as I have a perfect house and fenced backyard and I am fixing up the basement to have most my daycare down there during the day for play and exercise and school time.
Any suggestions on rates? She told me that I should put 12.24 unit for infants - 2yrs
11.48 unit for todlers to 5 yrs
10.20 unit school age.
Not sure if this is the truth. I am going to my first class Nov 16th but will have sent the right rates in by then.
Thanks, Tree
