Finding affordable child care that fits into your budget has been a dilemma for Utah families

Our economy’s Inflation is affecting Utah families in need of child care and early education for their little ones. The average costs are rising; recent reports indicate a nanny’s weekly cost of $736 is up 56% since 2013 and weekly daycare cost are $284, up 53% since 2013. In this economy with the high cost of childcare, Utah families are spending 27% of their income on childcare.
