It costs $40k/year for daycare. Start handing out $5k to moms, daycare now costs $45k/year.

They already hand out 3k a year for kids, up to 6k, as well as up to 5k in credits available based on how much you spend and your income level. And I live in Jersey, where everything is expensive, and we were ranked fifth most expensive place to have kids in daycare, and even with two kids in I didn’t pay 40k. Not sure we even cracked 30k, but it was probably close.
EDIT: Info is dated, good thing I have an accountant. Looks like it’s 2k per kid, and the 3/6k is for dependent care credits, which applies from 35% to 20% based on your tax bracket (goes down the more you make).
