In Feburary, I will be watching a friends infant as she goes back to work. I am wondering what daycares are charging for full time infant care. I want to charge her less than daycares, but I want it to be beneficial to me also. Thanks!!
I just went childcare shopping for our baby due May 1 and the places we considered were $740 - $925 per month.
Depends on the center and level of care/ratios and if they are certified. I would call some centers right around you, act like you are interested in enrolling and ask for the weekly price. I am sure they would be happy to give you a quote over the phone.
Good Luck!

Daycares charge anywhere from $180 to $240 for infant care. I think in home care may charge around $150-$180. I hope this is helpful.
I pay $205 for my daughter and she was born in April. A friend of mine pays $240 for her baby.
i am watching a 5 month old and have been since she was 8 weeks old.... i am not certified but she is the only child i keep during the day and i charge her parents $125 a week...also even though it is your friends baby make sure you have her pay you upfront and also on days that they dont need you...otherwise it can turn a friendship into a disaster...i know from first hand experience...you have to seperate business from friends.
My son's preschool charges $210/week for an infant.
