    in my area(mid west fl) For aninfant it runs aroun 120 a week,but we have a program where an organization,depending on you rincome,wil help pay for the daycare and you only have a co-payment.my daughter should have cost me about 90 dollars a week but instead I only had a 5 dollar a week co-payment.Ask your local social services,department of children and families,or hrs if they know of any programs such as the one I have.your best policy is to ask your local daycare providers their rates and you'll find very quickly what the average price is and they also will be able to tell you any programs that they accept at their locations that can help you financially.Best of luck to you!

    I'm not in the area but thumbs up for including your location! You'd be amazed how many people ask similar questions and don't even include the *country*. Just wanted to say that, hope someone from CO can give you the answer you're looking for :)

    i live in the Midwest and day care usually runs about 90-100 a week. the price will drop once they are a year old.
