Hi
I am planning on returning to work full time. I will be putting 2 kids into daycare.
Hubby earns approximately $52k and I am aiming to earn approximately $60k.
We are in victoria.
Does anyone know roughly how much daycare will cost me per week and what the government subsidizes? They will be age 1 and 3.
Im just looking to work out what my out of pocket costs will be each week.
thanks for your help

Online estimator is your best resource.

You'll be looking almost at full cost at my centre it's $385 per child per week and that's for the full week. The online estimator is your best bet. But I doubt you'll get much of a rebate.
If your just getting the child care rebate you get 50% discount on your feesup to the cap of $7,500 per child.
