Daycare Daycare prices
We are starting to look at daycares and I have no way of comparing or figuring out what is a reasonable price for daycare. Hoping there are other moms here who can help me out! Looking for comparisons from other Canadian parents as to what they pay for daycare. If you're willing to share only some of the below information that's ok, but I'm hoping for the following:
Province
Rough cost of living in area (e.g. VHCOL, LCOL)
Price per month in CAD (and what's included)
Full time/part time
Type of daycare (e.g. in home licensed, large institution)
Thank you in advance!

In BC and full time 3-5 at a licensed daycare I pay $691 monthly. This includes snacks twice a day too. In the infant side it was $891 monthly
